Hi Puresound,
I used to make my own the traditional real way when I had plenty of time and yes it was usually as good as the best real ales. To rival the finest ales you need time and you have to be very fastidious choosing only the best ingredients. It was certainly worth it.
Thanks for the link I will file it for when I reach the point where I can start brewing again. In the mean time it will have to be kegs.
Regards
Paul
Here's mine mocked up and ready for drilling. SuperTeddy board at top-right of the base. My 9-0-9V 50VA transformer looks to be about the same size as Leo's. Thanks for the case pointer, by the way, perfect!

Excellent stuff Martin, look forward to seeing how you get on with this and how it compares against the Timestep
Way hey - nice one, Martin! We must listen and compare that with the HE PSU, when it bcomes available :eyebrows: ;)
Marco.
The output impedance varies with the load on the Teddy regs, not sure how the voltage out will respond with these regs when driving something like the Techie, anyway should be interesting to see how Martin gets on, it may work great, if it doesn't suit the Techie it'll be good to try with the dac :)
I spec'd the SuperTeddy components for a 2.5A constant current limit and the 50VA transformer likewise. The reservoir cap may be on the small side but I'll put a 'scope on the raw side of DC and watch the waveform while I start the Techie motor. If it sags too much I'll bolt a bridge rectifier on the deck and put a bigger electrolytic in a clip.
Beauty with diy, just tweak away until it suits;)
Remember the tale about the iffy supply regulator on the techie, which causes some sort of supply "notching." The Timestep apparently bypasses this with its own superior regulation....
Yes, mine is bypassed so I'm already going straight in with clean 21V.
