Let's see... We now have a three terminal 1 amp low drop out voltage
regulator and a 25uF capacitor. Now we have to add a resistor and
thermistor to adjust for the ambient temperature changes. To choose the
correct thermistor the stabilizer output needs to be measured every 20
degs. or so. Then to calcula..... sounds like a fun project. I'll add
it to my list of fun projects that I'll do once the house, yard and the
MG are 100% (never).

I played that game but not as well as the PO of my MG. He has taken the
standard Mouse Trap (MG) and `improved' it to get the mouse trap in the
game. He even included the mice.
