Re: DC power supply

ATX computer power supplies are about as cheap as they come. For about
$25.00 you can have a 12v, 10A supply.

All you need to do is tie the green and a black wire together to turn it on
and place a 10 ohm, 10 watt resistor from one red wire to one black wire.

The 12 volt wires are yellow.
