Go ahead Brad and complete the current loop for the red dots.  It's your claim.

Chet?

Below i have marked the current flow path(conventional current flow) during the !OFF! time of the transistor.

I can't find the report at the moment using the forum's Search function, but I think it's back in this thread somewhere, about where you first mentioned your idea about the efficiency of the two variants. Maybe someone else remembers where it is.

I do remember the tests you did with the light meter saying the led was slightly brighter across the transistor, but you were going to do a comparison of the input power for each.

But i may have missed that.

Looks right to me, but were you holding your tongue towards mecca, whilst holding one finger to the wind and standing on one foot when you drew them?. That could be a very important set of missing details.    to some ...

There you go you pathetic sleazy little weasel.  Why should anybody trust you at all?

The revenge of Dr. Brainfry, his head is turning bright purple.

Are you saying it's wrong MH--alone with all your insult.
