    I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE B&S REGULATOR IS AN ACTUAL REGULATOR OR JUST A RECTIFIER, BUT AM REASONABLY SURE IT IS THE LATTER. THAT BEING THE CASE, I FOUND THESE RECTIFIERS ON EBAY AT A COST OF .68 APIECE AND ORDERED A BUNCH OF THEM JUST TO HAVE ON HAND. I WOULD LIKE TO ADD A CAPACITOR TO SMOOTH OUT THE RIPPLE, BUT DON’T KNOW HOW TO FIGURE OUT THE RIGHT ONE. I CAN UNDERSTAND SOME OF THE PRINCIPLES OF ELECTRONICS, BUT WHEN I GET TO THE MATH PART, I DON’T HAVE A CHANCE. ANY HELP ON THAT ISSUE WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
