Seems like I read somewhere that I-PAC supports 20mA, I could be wrong also, though!

Just looked up the specs on the microcontroller. :)

Maximum input Sink current is 16.5 mA tested @1 Volt.

Maybe it was the MK40 that was 20mA!  (So many encoders, so little time!!!)

Sasquatch!:

Just got my KE72 back from Hagstrom.  Here's what the plug looks like:


It came with a wiring harness that has 560 ohm 1/4 watt resistors built into the wiring:


I haven't tried it yet...I need to buy me some LEDs.  As a sidenote, my earlier posting that it put out 1.5ma of current was WRONG (even though that was a direct quote from Hagstrom, dammit).  The KE72 puts out 8.0 ma.

Dang I thought I was going to get to post those pics first! I had sent my unit in 2 weeks ago for other work and the LED header. Looks real good. Can't wait to try mine out tomorrow when it comes.
