Hi Peter, Good circuit ! However I have a couple of questions: 1. I presume the FET (Q2) will need a heatsink, as it will dissipate approximately 12W when discharging at 1 Amp ? 2. R9 should be 470 ohm, not 470 K Cheers, John G. John you are right. The FET needs a heatsink, as it works as a variable power resistor to provide a constant discharge current And R9 should have 470 ohm to turn on the monitor LED. Thanks Peter Peter Nyffeler Tel P 01 363 62 42, Tel G 01 632 43 60, Fax G 01 632 10 21
