The long answer :=) is that the P3 uses a pair of DC-DC converters to
convert +12V down to the +3.3V and +5V needed by its circuitry. This
tends to make the input "constant power" meaning that current times

Glenn,
That output is fused internally at 600 mA, and is supplied via a 1n4007
diode (1 amp max). Best not to exceed the 500 mA recommended max load. An
option would be to supply power to your powerpole strip from the same supply
that feeds the K3, but have it switched by a small relay controlled b

Guys,
I run a number of accessories from the switched power on the back of the K3.
I run it to a powerpole strip and then just plug in all the items that I
want to power up with the rig. So far I run a W2, an LP-PAN and a 6m
pre-amp. I'd like at add the P3. The K3 plug says 0.5A max, which is w
