Just load each supply line/voltage and see if it regulates. One of the larger
bulbs used for automobile running lights works great. :) You'll have to lower
the reset/standby pin to ground to start it up though.

Let it run overnight so it heats up real good ... then test again. If it DOES
NOT get warm, switch to a headlamp .

Be well,
