Got a QuadMic
I just got an RME QuadMic yesterday and I need to use it tonight. I was
hoping that someone could help me with making a battery pack since the included "manual" is horrible (It's one page front and back). Voltage requirements are anywhere between 7-38 VDC, and it draws 380 mA at 12 V. The QuadMic comes with a connection cable (power jack to 6.3 mm terminals) I want a configuration that will allow for the longest life possible and I need to be able to find the parts at Radio Shack because I don't have time to order anything. How can I make a battery pack? Thanks a lot. |

Look in the Yellow Pages for a local battery supplier and buy a 12V sealed lead-acid battery from them. How long do you want the battery to last, and how much weight do you want to carry? a 5 AH battery should do nicely for starters. The battery place should also have an appropriate charger. Radio Shack can help with a fuse and the requisite coax power plug. The other option is to use a 9.6V RC car battery (NiCd.)
