Right Dave, the MAX LDO looks just right, the current doesnt go beyond 20ma. In retorspect, I should have ordered these instead http://www.ebay.com/itm/Serial-Bluet...item3cbd9d88b2 ; 5v ready, and come mounted on a breakout PCB with standard 0.1' pins.

Still might, but then I'll have to endure a 20 day wait till they arrive
