Default Basic DC electricity question


If the voltage is insufficient, no power supply, no matter what current it
can deliver, will light the bulb.

Oh, really? Let's see the explanation of that.


He's correct. It's simple electricity 101.


OK, fine -- explain it.


A power supplies current draw depends on what the load is
and what the voltage is.

The current draw is not determined by the rating of the supply.
