Questions about power draw
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>So, I have a Frequency Central Routemaster and on their website it says " I’m recommend assuming that you ask about 500mA of each power rail (+12V 500mA, -12V 500mA) from the supply, assuming a 1A wallwart". Does this mean my max power consumption is 500mA combined or 500mA for both +12 and -12? My next question is about the Dreadbox Hysteria. I'm using Modular Grid to make sure I'm within a safe range and currently I'm at 443mA on +12 and 248mA on -12. <a href="https://www.modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/1428644">https://www.modulargrid.net/e/racks/view/1428644</a> Looking at each modules power draw, it says the Dreadbox Hysteria is 114mA on the +12. Is that high for an oscillator? It's like double the draw of my next highest module. I just want to make sure I'm understanding this stuff before I get everything added to my case and power it on. Thanks for any help.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/bts_ash"> /u/bts_ash </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/kpwxsm/questions_about_power_draw/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/kpwxsm/questions_about_power_draw/">[comments]</a></span>
