I have a power supply that gives 9.3 volts and can give 130mA. Just 3 questions - 1) Presumably the RCX can take 9.3 volts? It's not much over 9V... (Sound of frying RCX) 2) 130mA. Is that enough? I'm not sure how the RCX works internally, but the (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Short answer is yes. Check out this thread at Lugnet: (URL) 2) 130mA. Is that enough? I'm not sure how the RCX works internally, but the (...) Short answer is no. A single motor can draw 100mA. (24 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)
