It's always running - it's a voltage multiplier that generates 55VDC
and 11VAC for the display. We pull off approx 12-13VDC at one stage in
the multiplier, filter it, and then regulate it down to 9V and 5V.
Power is actually slightly quieter at _higher_ brightness levels
because the regulator drop-out margin is increased.
