I have a 7805 3 terminal regulator.
I'm sending out 32V, 2A (from small solar panels) through a +5v 1A 7805 to a 5v 2A playstation PSP
I'm having trouble finding the correct dimensions I need for the heatsink. there are so many different types!
would this one work by chance?

also from what i understand, i should use thermo grease (is that whats its called) between the regulator and heatsink? if possible, could you provide a link to this grease to make sure i get the right stuff?
many thanks
