From: Tim Crone <bb...@crone.us>
I have a Bluetooth adapter that connects via line-in to the radio
in the
van. It charges via USB. The audio is fine when it is not
plugged in to
the van power; however, if the USB cable is plugged in when
running, I get
static-y, whiny noise.
To make this a little more interesting, I also have an external
battery
pack. The other day I connected it to the Bluetooth adapter, and
if the
external pack was connected to the car power I got the static -
if it was
not, no static.
Because of this I think my adapter is okay, and I am suspicious
that there
is some AC coming off the ground from the lighter socket. Can I
just run a
capacitor or two across the fuse in the power connector to
filter? Any
suggestions on appropriate capacitance? Anything else I should
consider?
Thanks,
Tim
