It isn't a step down inductor.

you just use variable PWM  on the raw voltage. All you need to do is use 
a cap  and some form of current limiter - a resistors works but 
dissipates power

Those who want slavery should have the grace to name it by its proper 
name. They must face the full meaning of that which they are advocating 
or condoning; the full, exact, specific meaning of collectivism, of its 
logical implications, of the principles upon which it is based, and of 
the ultimate consequences to which these principles will lead. They must 
face it, then decide whether this is what they want or not.
