Hi,
I have a portable recorder namely a TASCAM DR680. It runs on 8 AA cells which last for an hour. I read on some forums that They power the same recorder with a LI-ion or SLA of 9-12V 7000mah batteries.
The AC adapter provides 12v DC at 2.5A. i.e 30W max power.
If I power it up with an SLA or Li-ion battery of 7A or more, wouldn't that fry my recorder?
Is there anyway I can regulate the current going into my recorder?
I have tried using a 12v 7000mah SLA. It has worked fine. But I am not sure whether the recorder can handle such power on the long run?
any suggestions?
Thanks!
