Question about ICBM Power Supply

The wall wart for my second hand ICBM just died. Manual says 15V 300ma, but wall wart reads 16V 300ma??? Also, it doesn't mention the center pin - is it positive or negative?

I would lke to know so that I can go down to my local Rat Shack and purchase a replacement.

My system is now down as the ICBM functions as a crossover for my mains.



Thanks.

The manual should be correct, but apparently it can handle a slight range of input voltages -- I'd start out trying for a 15V 300ma, but if you find a 16V 300ma it should work too. I don't know about the center pin, though, sorry.

I checked my ICBM. CAREFUL! The wall wart output is AC not DC. Because of this, there will be no polarity issue regarding connector configuration.

I measured the output voltage of the wall wart while disconnected from the ICBM. The 'no-load' reading was 17.8VAC. The ICBM must be handling AC-to-DC conversion and voltage regulation internally, likely so the ICBM can easily have both positive and negative 15VDC supplies for the components internally. 15VAC @ 300mA is likely a minimum target voltage, not an absolute requirement. Obviously 16VAC @ 300mA works well.

Did you contact Outlaw technical support for specific information?
