Can someone kindly?
Hi all.can someone kindly tell me if there plans out there to build my own
battery eliminator? I looked at the ARBB111 and it looks great, as well as the price.Theres must be a cheaper way. Thanks all!Chuck Near Pittsburgh,PA |
I collect antique radios and the old farm type/battery type radios are new
to me so a adjustable voltage in DC somewhere between2,5 to 7.5 I think! Mind ya I'm on a learning curve when it comes to old radios so bear with me please. "starman" wrote in message ...

Thanks all!Chuck Near Pittsburgh,PA How many batteries and what kind does the radio use? -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 80,000 Newsgroups - 16 Different Servers! =----- |
You can buy a multiple voltage AC adapter (battery eliminator). They
usually start at 3-V and go up to 9-V or 12-V. It has a switch to select the voltage. It will power most solid state radios that use less than 1000-ma (1-amp) of current. Radio Shack has them.

The kind of radios he's talking about are the old tube farm radios that ran on anything from a 6 volt tractor battery to 32 volts or even a battery bank with 90/22.5/9 volts like the old tube portables. |

Did these radios use a DC converter with a vibrator/transformer to produce the high DC voltage to power the tubes? -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 80,000 Newsgroups - 16 Different Servers! =----- |
