Re: [AN1x] Power Supply

2003-08-11 by Gerry

The thing to watch for with power supplies is loaded and unloaded 
voltage, also does the power supply have a high enough amperage 
rating.

Eg a typical phone power supply will be 100ma 9V.  Guess what you 
get when you attach a multimeter.....13-18VOLTS!!!  The above rating 
is a loaded rating.  

I would strongly suggest you use the original equipment power 
supply...Hey i have a brand new one (I received one extra by 
accident whe i ordered my AN1x), you can have it for $20

Thanks and good luck.

PS I fried a $900 Kodak digital camera by using a universal power 
supply, the volts were ok but the amps were inadequate, that sucker 
needed 1amp at 6v dc.  It's not worth it to lose expensive gear.
