Light Bulb Voltage Regulator - The LVR2 and LVR3 work by Pulse Width Modulating the battery voltage and applying that to the light bulb. In simplier terms it turns the light on and off so fast that the bulb appears to burn smoothly. The LVR adjusts the time on versus the time off precisely, so that can the bulb maintains the same brghtness even as the battery voltage drops, until the battery voltage is the same as the bulb voltage. At that point the LVR is on 100% of the time and the bulb grows dimmer with further battery drop. __ Designed by Willie Hunt
