Thermaltake cooling fan. Thermaltake Technology Co., Ltd. (Chinese: 曜越科技; pinyin: Yàoyuè Kējì; To Exceed Radiant Technology) is a Taiwanese manufacturer of PC case designs, power supplies, cooling devices and other peripherals. Its main headquarters are located in Taipei, Taiwan. [2]
Essentially, the meter's shunt resistor, used to generate a voltage proportional to load current, is replaced by one of value typically 100 times larger, with protective diodes. Readings of the modified meter have to be multiplied by the resistance factor (e.g. 100), and maximum measurable power is reduced by the same factor.
In contrast, a linear power supply regulates the output voltage by continually dissipating power in the pass transistor. The switched-mode power supply's higher electrical efficiency is an important advantage. Switched-mode power supplies can also be substantially smaller and lighter than a linear supply because the transformer can be much smaller.

A dive computer, personal decompression computer or decompression meter is a device used by an underwater diver to measure the elapsed time and depth during a dive and use this data to calculate and display an ascent profile which, according to the programmed decompression algorithm, will give a low risk of decompression sickness.
