Plugged in & Switched On
I installed a jack in my controller today so I could plug in a wall transformer and run off AC...save on the batteries. It works great. The transformer is 6VDC@400mA. The charge cycle is 13 minutes and run time is 9 minutes. The jack is located on the bottom right side of the controller so it does not get in the way when I play.
Only thing is that the batteries must be removed from the controller before I plug it in. The jack is wired direct to the battery pack contacts. Rat Shak has a jack that will disconnect the battery when the plug goes in the jack. Since I picked this jack outta my junk box, thats what I used.
If anyone wants to see pix just give a shout.

I didn't take any pix of the insides. If you really want to see them I can but I'll have to open it back up again.

I'm not a dummy when it comes to electronics but I don't know it all either. I have a universal AC transformer that can put out 3-9VDC, but it says nothing about the max output current. Do most DC converters like this, have limiting resistors or is always up to the device to regulate the current. I'd like to hook it up to my tanks but dont want to fry it.
