acurasquirrel member Registered: 10/01/2002 Posts: 186 Loc: Georgia	I saw how someone used a lead acid battery to power the empeg. Do you just hook it up directly to the empeg or what?

Make sure you use the correct 2.1mm DC power plug and most importantly centre positive. I would recommend a fuse (5A) near the battery connection and a reverse biased power diode (say 3A) in parallel with the connector. This thread has some similar info. Rod.

Err.. and your car battery is what exactly? if it's 12 volts DC and capable of providing 1 amp of power, it's suitable. _________________________ -- Murray I What part of 'no' don't you understand? Is it the 'N', or the 'Zero'?
