    I ordered 2 models:

    - 4 layers, all 1 oz, 5 for $147 including shipping and duties, $29.40 each
    - 2 layers, all 1 oz, 5 for $108 including shipping and duties, $21.60 each

    I was able to stay on Economic price by avoiding 2oz layers, and remained at recommended area size by TI.

    Output caps, 47uF (recommended), 10uF and 1uF.

    I was tempted to add 0.1uF and 0.001uF but I thought I might be exaggerating. I can still add them in the final version if you guys think I should; I have room and it's not like they cost anything.

    At least I'll have something to see how it ripples using PWM from transistors and mosfets.

    I can also push it for heat test by PWMing a whole roll of LED strip.

    My Creality Ender 3 S1 Plus is a giant paperweight that can't even be used as a boat anchor, cause I'd be fined for polluting our waterways with electronic devices.

    Not as dumb as yesterday, but stupider than tomorrow!
