Microtrack AC Power
« on: January 24, 2006, 08:57:55 PM »
Sorry if this has been convered, but I couldn't find anything on it. I am pretty sure I am going to pick up a MT pretty soon and I am assuming that the only charging option that comes with the unit is charging via USB. I have seen LOTS of options on here for battery power via USB (which is great), but what about AC? Has anyone used the USB AC adapter that the iPod uses? I assume that would work, unless the iPod has a different voltage, but I would assume that over USB the voltage is the same. Also what is a realisitc battery life with the MT when you're not using phantom? Thanks.

As far as battery life with phantom off, most people are getting 3- 5 hours without any sort of battery pack (I THINK.  I never use it w/o a battery pack).

Like the previous poster said, the MT comes with an AC adapter.  It's important to realize that the included AC adapter interfaces with the unit over USB, though.

my MT hasn't arrived yet, and i'm wondering if the AC power supply is international or U.S. only?  i.e. is it 100-240 50/60?  i can't find any info about the AC adapter and the pictures aren't detailed enough for me to read the label.

If you are using a microdrive, you will get less time, about 2:30 - 2:45, as it eats more power.
