Today I don't wat to bitch around but show you a real world example of the difference between a +5V with a dedicated power supply and +12V with an on board +5 converter. Someone at Muffs bypassed the on board +5 converter on a Piston Honda from The Harvest Man: <quote> took my piston down from 140mA on the +12 to 10-15mA. </quote> Source: http://www.muffwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=337552#337552 Obviously he measured in the wrong way. Can't be. Joachim
