Hi to all, I would like to know what difference there are if I connect the
6 diodes between the Handy Board & the Polaroid Sonar Card. Can I connect
the cards without diodes?
I tested the voltage at the Catode at the end of the 6th diode and my
Voltmeter showed 4.5 volts.

Should we use the 3 amp diodes?
Could somebody advise?...

Thanks in advance for your information. :-)

The Polaroid Sonar board requires a supply voltage less than 7 volts. The battery of the handy board is around 12, so you'll probably shorten the life of your sonar board considerably if you connect it straight in (i.e. burn it up :.)). The diodes (...)
