This is about these modules I got: dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.10091
I have some old power supplies from telephones and other electronics that I am using for my diodes. Here is the output of some of them: (some pictures of them here: flickr.com/photos/26793374@N07/
OUTPUT: 5V 1A
OUTPUT: 5V 2A
OUTPUT: 5V 2.6A
OUTPUT: 4.5V 400mA
OUTPUT: 4.5V 600mA
I don't understand these differences in amps and volts. See how some are 5Volts, but each one has different amps. Does that mean that 5V 1A might work fine for a diode, but if I use another one with more amps like 5v 2.6A that will burn out the diode?
Sometimes, when you buy a diode, there is a label that says for example 5Volts. Does this mean that 5 volts is the limit for that diode? But what about amps? 5V and how many amps?
What is the output of 2 D batteries connected together as shown below? It will be: 3V - but how many amps?
