One other thing. You need to isolate the diodes one from another. Meaning you do not use the case pin in any circuimstances, you need to obtain the battery negative connection through some other way, which may prove difficult.
Maybe I am misunderstanding something here, I took this to mean the casing of the diode was tied to the negative pin.....hopefully I misunderstood, if the case of the diode is not tied to the negative pin than I see no problems.
I certainly did not intend to school the teacher....you can see where I was coming from hopefully...believing the diode case was one with the negative lead would certainly cause problems with electrical isolation in a common heatsink.
So, if I misunderstood...now I really don't understand the above quote...please elaborate.
Thanks again for all the explanations,
Jeff
