Axon power source
« on: January 14, 2011, 11:48:34 AM »
I got my axon in the mail today (hooray!) but I don't yet have a power source for it.  I could either use some batteries, or I was thinking of using a DC adaptor that has been modified to have the proper connectors for the axon.  Can I do that?  I was thinking of using the adaptor shown on

the model number I'm thinking of is:  68-650-1

Would that work?

Yeap, that'll work.

But keep in mind 500mA is just enough to power only one servo. :P
