So, I'm working on a Faultline build right now, with the intention of running it at 18v. So, I'm also building a Roadrage to accomplish this. My question is, for running it at 18v, will 1N4001s and/or 1N914s still be good alternatives to the 1N5817 listed in the project doc for the roadrage? Or perhaps even 1N5818s? Any one of those 3 will be easier for me to get my hands on than the 1N5817. Thanks!
Any of the three you mentioned are fine. I uses 1N5818 all the time. But, the other two work as well.
Is there any "best" one for this application, or are the differences pretty negligible?
The 1N5818 should have the lowest voltage drop.
Thanks Brian!
