? re: external power to wireless receiver
In addition to batteries, my wireless receiver will work with a converter at 12V DC (nominal), 500 ma. But, the brick (maybe more a "rock", 'cause it's not that big) wasn't part of the package and didn't come with the receiver.
However, I have 3 other such "rocks" (i.e. AC-> DC converters) from other devices that put out 12V: 1 @ 100 ma, 1 @ 300 ma, and 1 @ 800 ma. Of those three, which is most likely to work without causing damage and/or interference? (Not sure if more or less ma's would be better). My hunch is to go with the 800 ma. Any recommendations? Thanks. |
generally speaking more ma is better then less. that said the 300 should be good enough. my lectro's pull 140ma. take a look in the manual on the power draw and long as its less then the wall wart, you';re almost good.
please be sure to check polarity of the connectors ! lectro's don't care, but not all wireless will like having the polarity reversed, and you'll let the blue genie out :( pro gear tends to be positive on the outer, prosumer gear positive on the inner - opposites. |
