I’m trying to follow the tutorial here (http://www.espruino.com/Heater+Controller), as it does exactly what I need. However, I need to run this off a battery pack rather than a 5V DC wall adapter.
My first thought was to use a battery pack of 4 AA batteries, generating 6V.
As I learned in another thread, apparently diodes can be used to knock down voltage. I presume one of those will come into play.
How can I adapt the tutorial to use a 6V power supply rather than a 5V?
Thanks.
