Happ Perfect 360's and power supply
namedos:
I know you can daisy chain the grounds but does anyone know if you can daisy chain the +5V on the 360's? I was going to get the power from a Y-splitter on my molex connection from the PC power supply.
My other option is to run a separate line for each joystick. Thanks.
Thenasty:
you can. Its still in parallel series so no voltage drop.

Thanks Nasty,
I just realized that it would probably be a heck of a lot easier to pull the power from the Optipac than it would from the PC power supply. Less running of wire and all self contained within the CP.
Taborious:
I was told that the Happ 360 could connect to a regular encoder, like the IPac4 and you didn't specifically need an optical encoder, that true? I am contemplating the 360's but still on the fence...
namedos:
It can be hooked up to the I-pac but it apparently is easier to hook up to the opti-pac. Since I've got one of those already going into my CP I figured I'd take the easiest way. Based on some other comments I'm trying to figure out what the Best way to go about this is.
