Requires low voltage - ~3V but relatively high current external power supply. Using - higher voltage but low current power supply could easily lead to - situation where step-up generated load pushes power supply output - voltage down too much. This leads to too much power being lost - within power supply and easily leads to power supply overheating! - -- There is no dedicated current limiter. 3V external power supply - and up-step are acting as current limiters. - -- While RCA connectors do work as DC power connectors, but are not - intended to be used this way and are not very reliable. - -- Voltage up-step provided output is not very clean. Extra capacitors - and induction coils could be added to remove high frequency noise in - the voltage. - -- Metallic and shielded body would be helpful to reduce - electromagnetic/radio noise generated by step-up. - -* Body - -[[file:body.png]] - -[[file:cover.png]] - - -+ Download: - + [[file:body%20and%20cover.FCStd][body and cover FreeCAD file]] - + [[file:body.stl][body in STL format]] - + [[file:cover.stl][cover in STL format]]
