Too hot 7805

[Sam Stratton]

Bingo! I'd try measuring current output, I think the 7805 is good for about 
an amp( it would be hot though) I hate heat too but some heat is OK - are 
you getting "blister raising" heat or is it just warm?
>My first guess would be that your 7805 is defective... they do get very hot
