A Wheatstone Bridge is a circuit used to measure an unknown resistance.
A Bridge Rectifier is a circuit used to convert ac to dc.
Hope this clears up any confusion.

Hi,

Argos do a decent power supply, it's not the 'wall wart' type, it is basicly a box with two leads on it, one with a mains plug, and one with a multi- headed type thing to fit different electrical stuff.

It'll do what you need I reckon, and it's only £9.99, search argos.com for product number: 982/7538

I have got one, it power's my electric curtains.

Mike
