As I built using 2x 24V 2A transformers (the amps are very much needed in the bull plop in which I dabble) in parallel also with a voltage doubler throw switch incorporated into it (I tend to get into some crazy schtick when working alone... seems as if I need to humor myself just to stay awake...). Honestly ... It is very very very precise for the most part! I killed current pot tho. LMAO. Other than that. VERY impressed. I just got my new lab psu about a week ago...

I was very much proved wrong and sometimes it does seem that less is MORE.... just like the linux command... lol Thanks for the great idea!
The polarity of C1 is backwards in the schematic diagram shown and so is the full wave bridge rectifier. The PLUS should go to the emitter of VT2 and the negative of the power supply should go to ground.
@@franzliszt8576 Why so? I'm trying to learn how this circuitry works. Kaysan's video's seem very simple to understand, but I want to understand each part of it before I dare trying it out for myself.
Hello Kasyan, I liked your videos, but it would be good if you explain the working of all the components in a circuit or say complex components (which are not easy to understand at first sight) so that more and more people would be comfortable using them.
i think rectifier positive pole and capacitor positive pole would be changed to emiter of tip 42 is it correct or not please confirm one more think that is positive and negative are short
Good stability for voltage drop when the bulbs are powered ! 5 seconds for shortcircuit are resonable but Try to implement a circuit solution with a permanent protection .
How does the combination of VT1 and VT2 work exactly? Your video's seem very simple to understand, but I want to understand each part of it before I dare trying it out myself.
Ive had trouble with the transformer and bridge rectifiier part of this type of circuit in the past. what about omitting those two components and get the desired fixed voltage from an ac Adapter ? like one from a radio the little black box things you plug into the wall with a jack on the other end....? Im sure you know what I mean lol. will this work the same as an input voltage you wold get from the trans/rectifier components? or would the amps not be adjustable as its fixed coming out of the ac adapter?
If you use that, you can ommit the transformer and the full bridge rectifier (along with the capacitor, if you'd like). The only problem would be the output voltage and output current of your adapter. And should you do a short circuit, you might blow the fuse inside the adapter.
since it's a liner power supply i assume i can't adjust it for higher amperage or the T2 will over heat or i can get away if i replace it with a power transistor ? and if i can what should i adjust to get more amps ?
Hi, Aka ... I didnt know you have english channel as well ... your English sound surprisingly good ... except for things like pronouncing linear (произносится "линеар", а не "лайнеар") ... удачи братан ))
Hi. If i replace the diode can i get more voltage from it? I really need a good power supply and it would be nice circuit and not a very expensive stuff
Several circuits Kasyan has presented are very interesting, educative and even a joy to see. But this circuit/project has some problems and difficulties, as it presents 2 mistakes in the diagram: (1) inverted polarity in rectifier bridge; (2) inverted polarity filtering 2200uFd capacitor. Also, circuit configuration does not provide consistent current limitation from one build to another, as it appears to be made using the transistor gain (beta) properties, which varies a lot from sample to sample. A simpler signal Transistor and shunt resistor (about 0.5 Ohm) could provide current limitation & protection, without affecting voltage stability. Several other projects made by Kasyan already perform much better than this one; use those instead.
My concerns are 1: does shut off when is fully charged the battery? 2: can you connected to a Generator and then when the battery is fully charged will then shut down and when the battery is low in power will start again to charge it? I look forward to your reply please if you can provide diagram of what I am asking for.
This does not have a charge protection because it's a simple power supply. And yes you can use a generator for your electricity, though you have to look for the output of that generator to see if it's still enough to be above your desired voltage because the voltage regulator is a step down converter.

Hi. I am following and learning from youIt.But this circuit is not working. I made it, but the resistance of 470R was given out smoke! After calculations I noticed that if it's power is 0.25 watt, only 23 mA can pass through. Which means 9V maximum output can be taken. So it must be at least 2 Watts. Also the rectifier nodes must be changed as others mentioned.
Hi, Can we use your method to charge Ni-MH Type Battery? having INPUT: 220VAC and OUTPUT: 190-220VDC (adjustable) with 1-6amp (adjustable)? Please guide accordingly...
Hi , May be an idea for a new experiment. I got 10pcs lm317 for $1 from TK Electronics , on Ebay and believe it or not those work as original from ST and do not blow up even at 39 Volts input and short-circuit , current limiting works at 1.5 Amp. I build a linear regulator powersupply using a lm431(instead of a 10kohm pot) to drive the LM317 (in my case 6pcs in parallel). It resulted in an extreme stable powersupply.
Did you ever post this project? I would like to see it. But, TH-cam will not let you post the link in the comment section (unless it is a TH-cam address,) so you will have to find some way to code the link description to be something that we can understand.
Ohhhh. Where do I start? Ok. Your polarities are incorrect. Switch the connection to the bridge rectifier as well as the orientation of the capacitor C1 and the circuit will work. Your polarity indication at the output is labelled correctly but according to the take off from the bridge that would be a common positive. Also VT2 needs positive input at the emitter.
If your transformer outputs 25 volts the voltage regulator needs to dissipate a lot of heat, the efficiency will drop as well. In other words, you need a bigger cooling block.
can i use this circuit in motorcycle for charging battry and 55-60watt headlight bulb? i have Yamaha rx135, we self made it coil and its output is 60v 6a when i accelerate bike on full throttle. we need 12v 5a for headlight and 12v to 14v 1a for charging the battry. do i need to make some changes in circuit? then what is it? please reply...... Thank You. :)
It is probably limited to 15 volts because that is either the maximum of that linear voltage converter or the transformer gives 15 volts from the power from the wall.

Hello, Can you guide me for limiting the output current to 350mA of a power supply (with output 250vdc, max output 15Amp). Should I simply add 0.22 Ohm 10W (9 Resisters) in Parallel before load?
Tech Maker change power supply, like a 35 volt@3 Ampere one, find a 32 volt Zener Diode, change transistor to a more suitable one (like TIP42) and reduce value of the 470 ohm resistor(i used 220 ohm 2watt resistor and obtained output current of 4 ampere)

At last! Someone who knows how to display schematics on videos
The polarity of C1 is backwards in the schematic diagram shown and so is the full wave bridge rectifier. The PLUS should go to the emitter of VT2 and the negative of the power supply should go to ground.
i think this design wont ever work,even as you corrected
CCCP transformer :D My Man!
Fuck off commie!
capacitor polarity is inverted dear, it could explode or set fire, be very carefull with this !!! ✴✴✴
Seems your rectifier is inverted . the dc output is directly going to ground. WRONG
C1 is also inverted.
Should R4 be in between VT1 emitter and VD2? Should 20V RMS make C1 closer to 28-29V?
