I understand that voltage dividers make lousy power supplies, such as when directly attached to rectified stepped-down mains power. But in this case I've got a number of 12-volt DC supplies laying around so assuming that they're fairly well regulated and I don't exceed the maximum rated amperage then I should be able to wire these up to a simple voltage divider arrangement to give me the range of voltages I need for the various projects I'll be working on, right? So I could just plug one of the leads from the divider into the breadboard to select either 12v, 9v, 5v, 3.3v, etc, depending on whatever voltage that particular circuit requires. Should that work okay?
