Your switcher is either a flyback, providing it's own isolation, or
hideously dangerous.

Besides, what DC are we talking about here?
In reality, we're saying that the average current in one half cycle will be
higher than the other.
This is nothing new to the power company, they've dealt with a lot worse in
the past.

Your switchers will draw current on both cycles, BTW, as will your bench
supply, unless it's half wave rectified, which is a lousy design for a
bench supply.

I would have a link to http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/find.cgi?KC6ETE-9 here
in my signature line, but due to the inability of sysadmins at TELOCITY to
differentiate a signature line from the text of an email, I am forbidden to
have it.
