A 7812 positive 3-terminal regulator is used for the main 13.8V 10A regulator, and this is followed by as many power emitter followers as needed for the current you require. The transistors are not critical. I used 2N3771 devices (50V, 20A, 200W) simply because I had a whole bunch of them in my junk-box. These are pretty much ideal, but I suggest that you use whatever

20A Linear Power Supply Circuit
This linear power supply project for communication equipment is among the most commonly built electronic projects. Almost every technically inclined radio amateur has built at least one. However, unfortunately most designs, even those published in well respected books, are unnecessarily complicated, or have some specific drawbacks. The design presented here is a bit unusual in its arrangement, but offers some advantages over the usual designs.

12V Inverter

Simple 12V Inverter for Fluorescent Lamp
This 12V inverter is very easy to construct, reliable, and even powerful enough to light up a 15W fluorescent tube (if you're cool your transistor well). The only hard-to-find piece of this baby is the so-called yellow inverter transformer. It's a miniature high-frequency transformer that has a 25mm x 20mm x 5mm ferrite core, 30 turns of primary, 15 turns of feedback, and 250 turns of secondary all concentric, wound on plastic frame than wrapped with a
