Hi, let me start by saying that I do not have any formal degree in electronics, but I love taking thigs apart in order to understanding how things work. Presently I took my heating pad apart to understand how it works. I have been having a hard time understanding how the switch mechanism works. The pad has a button that enables the user to turn the pad: OFF->WARM(green LED)->LOW(yellow LED)->MED(orange LED)->HI(red LED)->OFF . . .
Regardless of the Warm/Low/Med/Hi setting the output Voltage and Current never changes but the pad temperature still changes per the setting. How is that possible?
