Abstract

An electronic controller (22) designed to be placed within an electrical series circuit for the purpose of controlling voltage and amperage applied to a series load (21) within the same circuit. The concept of design being that the controller is attached exclusively to the series circuit and obtains operating voltage through the points of connection to the series circuit. The controller provides a wide range of variable amperage control to the load being driven. Further design features are that the controller operates within a series circuits comprising alternating current, rectified alternating current, pure direct current or a combination of any without modification.
