    Re: Power to RCX —Juergen Stuber
   (...) Putting a regulator in front of the motor controllers would be utter nonsense IMHO. (...) Plus the data sheet of the motor controllers. Jürgen (23 years ago, 13-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
   
        Re: Power to RCX —Matthias Jetleb
   (...) Utter nonsense until you destroy the controller itself. Remember, while the Lego motors can take a fairly substantial voltage without being destroyed, the same is not true of the motor controller within the RCX. There is a voltage limit for (...)

        Re: Power to RCX —Juergen Stuber
   (...) Yes, but any regulator would convert power uselessly into heat, probably too much if you use a much higher voltage and draw some current. It would be better to use higher voltage motor controllers directly (if they exist). And of course this (...) (23 years ago, 14-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
