    Thank you Ingo,

    Good observation!

    I corrected the schema and the circuit (I was already noticed about this by Acetronis some hours ago - as I say, better two times than never ).

    As I'm not an electronician but a real "bricoleur du dimanche". Anyway, why is the use of a Zener this way not a good idea?

    Ioannis, your math is absolutely correct but when I take my FLUKE87 or my scope, they both show a maximum of 3,45 volts. This has to be, again, one of this famous frontier between theory and real life .

    I forgot to ask: what type/model of MOSFET or Transistor would fit my application best please?
