So I need something relatively inexpensive to give phantom power to my new Busman's over the festival season while I wait for Jon to finalize the new Littlebox v1.5. I figured I'd just take power from my Zoom H4n and then get a battery for it. I realize that the H4n's built in pre sucks but figure my tapes will have to suffer for the short term.
I've found the Proporta Turbocharger 5000mAh may be just the thing but I was wondering if any of you in the know can confirm a couple of things for me before I take the plunge.
Here's a link to the product. BTW, it seems to be much cheaper on Amazon than buying directly from the manufacturer.
- The "charger's" output is 5V 1.5A. Apparently it's designed for products that charge through your USB ports. My H4n's AC in is 5V's 1A. Shouldn't be a problem, right?
- It doesn't come with an adapter that fits my H4n...I figured maybe I'd just ask Ted to make me a cable for this.
Can anyone help me out with this? Does this sound/look like a good temporary solution or are there some issues I'm not seeing/getting? Thanks very much in advance for any replies.
