Voltage of Konica-Minolta AC-11 adaptor (Dimage A200 and Maxxum 7D)
Anyone know the voltage and polarity of this adaptor? It's $60.00 at B&H and that's BS of a very high order.

I have one, and on the back it says: Output 6V dc 2A (input 100v - 240v 50/60hz) The plug is center positive (--C-+) 2 amps! that's quite a lot (from a battery point of view). The same as the adaptor for the RD175 though. Shame Minolta doesn't have spare power cables for that one. And I haven't figured out how the adapter is wired up yet. On the adapter side are 3 pins and on the camera side 2. So 2 are probably connected to make the adapter switch from battery charging to power supply. Oh well.. I might run into someone one day who'll let me check the wiring. But some seem to use generic psu's on their Dimage 7's. (ranging from 5V 2A to even 7,2V 2A) But personally I wouldn't dare do that. It's not a walkman, but a cpu that needs to be powered. Anyway, hope this helps. Cheers, Mathieu P.S. accessoiries and parts are allways ridiculously overpriced. Payed about $60 for a battery cap for my RD175 last year. Asked the man twice if he really got the right amount... my word... |
