Oggie400F:
Is it possible to rig up some kind of cheap and cheerful digital current controller if using a 12v battery charger as the power source?
It would have to be simple for those of us with minimal elecrickery skills or knowledge. 🙂
The simple filament wire controller included with the kit is very hit and miss.

You can use an LM338 reguator in constant current limit mode...

I think you are wrong there Steve ..Ian is an 'ull lad  ;D and keen to learn... he's already made and used a version of the Ashimoto curing oven :)   ;D  Its only a three legged device and a resistor & capacitor after all. Ian you coud probably used the resistance wire you got with your basic kit as a variable resistor (R1 in circuit)  and I can get you an LM338 no probs for free. Needs a decent heatsink though.

All I can say Ash - is 'eh!'
