Mason also gave each of us some good 'ol cellphone chargers to modify. We stripped off the ends of the power supply and soldered two pins onto the positive and negative rails. Within just a short moments, everyone in class made their own little 5V power supply that's pushing out almost .75A and is also breadboard friendly! To me, this was a great solution to powering some electronics that requires little power. Before, I had to jump a full size PC power supply if I needed to power up some led strips.
