Cool, so the either the RK44 or the bat 46 would be appropriate for a system running at 9 volts and .8 amp.

Is there any advantage from using bundles of diodes of will just one diode be better?

If this is correct, thanks all.  :-)

hy
the rk44 has big leads on them so they won't fit in a solderless board 3amp diode..
(breadboard)
just thought i tell you before you bought them..

No worries, I'm going to bundle them and make a full wave bridge, so it'll be a permanent thing. tks

Having several low voltage drop diodes will boost your forward current capabilities, but if one of them fails the reverse voltage, then all of them becomes useless to suppress the one which failed.

Such a low drop of voltage is usually indicative of a low reverse voltage as well, just a reminder.

I'll check them all before I install them.

What would cause a diode to fail in a full wave bridge?
