Re: Voltage regulator--how to mount?

you know Ive used the 7805 for lots of projects(usb car charger, loads of ttl circuits off of 9/6v), and Ive never had a problem with over heating(not to say it doesn't get hot just that it doesn't seam to be a problem). so you can put a heat sync on it if you'd like but I think that may be over complicating things.

If at first it doesn't work, use a hammer.
If that doesn't work, use a bigger hammer.
