[HBQRP] TI Voltage regulator

[Rick Bennett]

As an alternative, you can roll your own switching regulator circuit for a few dollars.  There are a bunch of different switcher ICs out there and some can do both step down and step up voltage.

There is a little more "engineering" involved, but you won't need the big heat sink required for a linear regulator.

And only a measly little $21 and change each!  :)
