It does. So in effect I am right, and voltage dividers needs to be "dialed in" so to speak depending on the circuit attacked. I was just in another thread where somebody was talking about driving an arduino in a car, and some suggested they use a divider to power it. To me, that just seems a little sketchy. I am about to put my LED project in my car, but I am using a 7809 and a couple caps to power it.
