Re: ARP 2600 power supply

Todd,

The model is the 15-15-A with an output current of 1.5A.  I was told 
by a technician that I could get away with a lower current rating 
than this but decided to be more safe than sorry.

As for the current drain, I couldn't tell you right now as the unit 
is in pieces getting a total refurb!!!

Matt
