I would also add a reversible barrel connector output from an adjustable 3,4.5,6,7.5,9 and 12volt barrel interchangeable wall power supply.That way you can power most low power electronics,and reverse the barrels if the tip is non standard negative.Some tips are negative for some reason.

[@anomittity]

Usually when you find the tips reversed its because the company wanted to make the PSU Proprietary so you can only get it from them. Any noob cake can simply cut/splice the wires in reverse. 😆

[@cdrive5757]

Convention has it that when a Pot is turned clockwise the output voltage (Vout) should increase not decrease as seen here. Swapping the two fixed wire nodes of the Pot will fix this.

[@binaryglitch64]

Your not wrong, I rewired the pots in my mom's stereo to be left handed friendly (she's left handed) as a kid... the moral of that story was tangential but since I brought it up anyways... I learned that you should ask if people want a favor before you do it... she had gotten used to using them the normal way and it kept throwing her off, so she had me change it back. Also while technically a variable resistor in theory should work fine both ways, design is probably party informed by this convention thus they're designed to be used per the convention. Though I doubt that the design-informed-by-convention effect has had much or even any effect in the actual pots produced by the various manufacturers, so I can't see it being an issue, I'm just explaining the underlying principles of why we... you know what, I'm talking too much...

@@binaryglitch64 Are you perhaps a psychology student? I think you've over complicated a basic electronics convention.

[@echodelta9]

It's not just convention. I reversed the gas valves on my stove. I have seen only one volume control wired up wrong. Hotel in Florida vacation and my dad blasted the TV every time he went to adjust it. Plumbing is where this got screwed (pun) up. They took a normal right hand thread and put it into a head and valve seat and now it works backwards. Electronic controls hadn't been invented yet. But now hear me out, if you have a logarithmic volume pot it will definitely be near useless backwards. Grant's mom knew something was not right, all the range was near the one wrong end. A linear pot would be better for voltage selection, where half way up is about half the voltage range.

[@christopherperry8693]

电源内变压器最大转换电压约是标称的2倍，并且要考虑高电压端的电压余量，所以用5V的电源只能最高调到10V左右，同时滤波电解电容器的容量和耐压应加大。 The maximum conversion voltage of the transformer in the power supply is about twice the nominal, and the voltage margin of the high-voltage terminal must be considered. Therefore, the 5V power supply can only be adjusted to a maximum of about 10V, and the capacity and withstand voltage of the filter electrolytic capacitor should be increased.

[@ylw4708]

补充一下，下面电阻应该1KB才对，否则理论上最高电压只有13.86V左右 To add, the following resistance should be 1KB, otherwise the theoretical maximum voltage is only about 13.86V

I suppose it reaches the maximum voltage of the adapter, in this case 12v or a little more. He's probably saying it's good for adapters up to 25v because he puts 25v capacitors. I don't consider it click bait, as it does give a way to get variable voltage up to the adapters voltage.

The transformer was dedicated around the peak voltage ex 12V, you cannot increase or decrease the TL431 above 12 volts because the PWM IC pulse duty cycle will run out of range and stop oscillating.
