gulaz 1 #1 April 22, 2004 We are trying to piece together the pieces for the camera system in the 206 we just got at the dropzone. There is a video recorder, an external video camera, an internal video camera, and a digital still camera. We want to run all of it off of the 12v cigarette lighter in the plane. The video stuff all runs on 9vdc, and the still camera runs on 7.5v. 9v needs probably max of 2-3 amps (havent measured it yet) and <1A for the 7.5v source. If anyone has any ideas how we can build something like this, it would be great. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gulaz 1 #3 April 22, 2004 Been done. It was decided that using the cigarette lighter to run the cameras cant draw enough current to affect the airplane. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
