Electronic experts, I need help too!
Here's the deal, I have a lightsheet experimenter's set, and I have one of the Voodoo FX's Falcon Lighting kits. The Lightsheet kit runs on 3 AAA's and the Voodoo off one 9 volt. Is there anyone out there who could connect the lightsheet kit to the Voodo so I could run both off the 9 volt? I'm willing to pay.

I can think of three quick ways to do this;
1. A resistor in series with the light sheet kit.
2. A resistor in series with a 4.5 volt zener diode in parallel with the sheet. Same idea as above but more constant voltage.
3. Voltage regulator, three leads one to ground one to the 9 volt, last lead to the light sheet kit.
If you want details PM me with specs on the light sheet (current) and I'll get you a parts list for each.
