Re: [Flexradio] flex radio operating voltages

Not that I'm in the habit of recommending their products, but have you considered the MFJ-4416B Super Battery Booster? They claim the switching regulator efficiency is over 90% and that it will regulate down to 9V input. They also have a GoesInna-GoesOutta remote monitor (MFJ-4416BRC) for

Re: [Flexradio] flex radio operating voltages

I asked this question some time ago and received the following reply: All Flex-3000 users: The dropout voltage of the 5V regulator is 2.5V, all the lower voltage regulators are LDO types. I have completed a few simple low voltage tests, the production calibration tests all pass at ~11.4V. The

Thanks, that is what I needed to know. I will be a new Flex owner next week. On 3/14/2010 2:59 PM, Brian Lloyd wrote: I asked this question some time ago and received the following reply: All Flex-3000 users: The dropout voltage of the 5V regulator is 2.5V, all the lower voltage regulators are

Re: [Flexradio] flex radio operating voltages

One other thing to add to what Brian sent, the output may drop at the lower voltages for the same current draw, simple Ohm's Law..But it will work just fine at reduced voltages , just slightly lower output. Welcome to the group. Most of us are pretty decent folks .. :-) 73,
