Linear Regulator using FETs for pass device

Well, how's this one? NTE213 It was the first hit on my MSN search for "high-power pnp amplifier transistor".

Powerful enough to need only two, but would definitely need a pre-driver as the current gain is pretty low at high currents. Besides, it looks like an odd package. I think I'll stick to several TO-220 style (or similar) transistors, and just use several. Thanks anyway though!

Yeah, they're cheap enough that you can use as many as needed. Easy to find heatsinks for, too.

Yeah, kinda what I was thinking. Can't go wrong at less than $1 each...
