Steven Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I have this idea to put a small audio amplifier in my LOR network, powered from the controllers. What is the feasability of powering it from the voltage on pin 3? How much current is available there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Posted September 9, 2008 Author Share Posted September 9, 2008 That may be enough for something like this: http://www.electronickits.com/kit/complete/ampl/ck701.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightORamaDan Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 There is a chance it will work off the acc voltage. It says it uses less than 300ma but it does not give a max current. Not sure if our DC is filtered enough for audio it may cause a hum. No way to tell until you try.Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafter Bar R Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Could a small opto SSR be controlled by this voltage without damaging the controllers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
