Just include a fuze of about 300-500ma, and enjoy the result.

Yep, like a fire???

I can't believe what I'm reading in this thread.

The question was about as clear as, "I've got this green

No, it's really not unclear at all.

You guys have NO IDEA what the "machine" is and you're
giving advice based on YOUR experience with something
probably/maybe entirely different.

Do you know *anything* about electricity?

The risk of catastrophe is low...except when it isn't.

Don't answer when you don't know the question!

Sorry about the rant. Bad advice on the web is my pet peeve.

Oh, good grief!
