      Does anyone remember an early cgi render of a Dalek crawling out of its casing? It was around the time the 'Storm' design came out & the Dalek under the water.

      Really impressed by the video of the mostly original 1966 Dalek auctioned by Bamfords in 2016 posted by @Mike Aubert in his build diary.

      The S.S.R model B No 1 Version 2 is up and running. Vastly superior to my other versions. Apology to @bertus on another topic. Kevin was rude and impolite. Had too many cold beer's while I was using this design. Totally forgot that Kev has this design. The other people out there just don't have access  to this model. Expect to get censored and banned from the Forum. This design is that good that I would come up against an Electronics Moderator.

      Hello,   @Trackhappy, the circuit shows an 1n4007 diode. There are better diodes available. See my post of april 17.   An other option could be a buck/boost converter like this: https://www.amazon.nl/-/en/dp/B0B1F1C9DB/ref=sspa_mw_detail_0?ie=UTF8&psc=1&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9kZXRhaWwp13NParams   From the page: Protection circuits | Surge protection, reverse pole protection, short circuit protection, overload protection and overheating protection ensure safety.   Bertus
