Re: Running PD Board from an outlet

I second the computer power supply. Ask your school's tech department if you can get a power supply out of a dead computer. Those can easily put out a huge amount of clean current (I currently use one to drive the stereo in my school's NOC).

A word of warning though, those can put out dangerous amounts of current, make sure you know what you're doing when working with it.
