2pods Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 (edited) After a rummage about I've found an adjustable digital camera adaptor which states: PRI :100v-240~50/60Hz 20W SEC :3, 3.3, 5, 6, 6.5, 7V;;;;;; (top line solid, bottom broken) 2100mA 14.7VA(max) Can I use this to power the xciter, and if so, what setting should I use ? The downloaded manual states that external power should be : 5-12VAC 7-17VDC I don't want to blow the xciter up, so I thought I'd ask.

Silent Fly Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 If you have multimeter, it might be a good idea check the actual output voltage but considering that the Xciter accepts a wide range of voltages, it should be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2pods Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 So what do you think then, 7v ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Xciter should work but you may have clipping problems with a strong input signal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2pods Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 I may as well get a "proper" psu then. It says it can also be powered via phantom power too. Handy for recording Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
