And in this specific application (simple resistor as a load) you could even save all the diodes and generate even more heat in the resistor alone instead of also „heating“ the diodes. *
This my most favorite circuit. It’s a very simple and elegant solution doing its job in silence without getting the kudos it deserves.
I know RL is just a simple generalization for a load.
And generates heat!
