[sdiy] OT - DC controlled dimmer

[Grant Richter]

Is this for controlling lights? 0 to 10 volts is standard to control  
0 to 100% for analog dimmer packs.

The one I use is made by American DJ. You can control the RPM of a  
drill with an ADSR if you want.

What is an electronic_transfos? I have never heard of that before.
