  RE: I played with fire...
 
(...) While your RCX is fried, it is probably not from plugging AC power into the power plug. LEGO's low voltage adaptor is an AC adaptor. Or did you mean you applied AC power to the RCX sensor port? (17 years ago, 26-Aug-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I applied 9V AC power to the internal + - battery connectors. (17 years ago, 26-Aug-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  RE: I played with fire...
 
(...) My mistake. The RCX 1.0 has an AC adaptor jack which has a full-wave bridge rectifier to convert to DC and would provide AC protection. I guess RCX 2.0, without the external jack, does not have this. (17 years ago, 26-Aug-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Has anyone ever succesfully tried to include an adaptor jack in an RCX 2.0? Are there any pics or schematics? linmix (17 years ago, 26-Aug-07, to lugnet.robotics)
