Power Supplies are black magic If that's how you feel about them, then please - use a wallwart 😉

Actually, it was my middle little brother, the mechanical engineer who does packaging for blade servers, who told me the electrical engineers consider the PSU engineers to be practitioners of a Black Art . . .
. . . I'm more of the Tim the Tool Man Taylor Type, but with enough expertise to be really dangerous in many a field! [}🙂] ]'>
. . . and me likes zaps, flames, sparkles and pops, so me keeps fire extinguisher close at hand. :approve:

Hm.. ive never thought of power supply engineering being a black art.
ive done alot of engineering/hacking of power supplies, I havent done a complete build from scratch of a 120v supply though. only 12v for car audio, have I built custom power supplies for. Even used an MCU to run the entire thing including the PWM output to drive the mosfets.
