Hi, I am about to start on a mini project to convert a car phone charger into a charger for my electric shaver that I keep in my car, so I can have a shave at work if I forget. I want to be able to charge it in the car so that I don't have to take it out to charge it. I have an old Nokia phone charger that currently outputs 5.95 volts dc. The shaver says on the back 5v 400ma, so I have added a resistor to the shaver to drop the voltage down to approx 4.85v. Is this way to do this or should I use a voltage regulator instead ?. Also how is the output current of a power supply calculated / measured ?.
