+5V from IPac2?
« on: September 12, 2005, 04:16:59 pm »
I thought I read somewhere that the IPac2 can provide +5V, but I just received it and I don't see a lead for it anywhere.  I'm trying to use it to connect a couple Happs P360 opticals....

Both the I-Pac 2 and I-Pac 4 have 5v available.

I read in another post that someone was going to use the +5 from an Optipac (which I have one of as well).  the Optipac has five +5V leads so I was thinking of using one of them to power 2 of those P360s.  Think there will be a problem using one of the +5's for 2 joysticks?

Well...I guess I can say I confirmed it works as I tried it out last night.
