Glen, nice work with that Zener diode addition. I don't see a downside (i.e. noisy diode switching or heat generation) and the rating of the 1N5366 diode is 5 Watts, .....Thanks, Mark
It's funny you mentioned switching noise. When I looked at the dwg. the first thought I had would be to hang a .1uf cap on the anode of the zener or the regulator output. No justification, but I'm always concerned about oscillations etc.
