Not to push you over the edge, Neville, but you have to adjust your
thinking a bit.
It is indeed the "current" that determines your result, not the
voltage.
The voltage is the "pressure" needed to keep the current flowing.
No voltage= no current.
Way too much voltage = way too much current.
Current limiting diode = proper current over a wide range of voltages.
OR a feedback servo loop to do the same thing.
Proper current ranges in the 1 to 4 milliamp range. (don't care what
the voltage is).
