RE: Wavefinder PSU

[steve.crick@xxxxxxx]

:( I thought with all the love in the air around WaveFinders, somebody
would
have been able to answer my question :(

Also; I remembered reading that XP problems with the WaveFinder
(discussed
in another thread) can be fixed by loading the W2K USB drivers. There is
a
whole thread in the wavefinder chat forum about it.

Subject: [ukha_d] Wavefinder PSU


I have been getting audio dropouts with my Wavefinder; which is pretty
strange because I only ever get a 100% signal.

I was browsing through the Wavefinder forum, and this issue was being
discussed. Bottom line is that it seem that the supplied PSU is pants,
and
people are advising buying a new one, or connect to the regulated 12v
output
>from
I dug around in my junk drawer, and found a PSU with the correct plug
and
polarity (wrong voltage/ampage); tried it and have not had any audio
dropouts for the last half hour (previous frequency was 1-2
minutes)!!!!

My question to the collective is this:

The Psion PSU is rated at 10v 300mA
The one I am using 7.5v 2.1A

(not being electrically minded) Am I going to fry the Wavefinder over
time
using the higher ampage, and are there any issues with the 2.5 volts
drop?
Another thing, do these plugin transformers use _any_ electricity when
nothing is connected/switched off?

Ta - Steve
