Powering 2 ARs with just 1 Supply

Lovely Elektronauts,

I’d like to figure out whether it’s feasible to power 2 ARs with just one Elektron PSU-3 Power Supply by using an A/C adapter multi plug.
Reason: I’m on the road a lot, despite not owning a car, and need to minimize weight and size of my gear to the max.
I’m aware that move would save merely 400ish grams, but still…

Cheers!

not really sure as the AR really loves a lot of amperage. For example, I was a bit bummed to find out that you cannot power the AR from an external USB battery, since it needs so much amps to work. Only way to know is to test the combo you’re planning.

Alrighty. But testing that can’t do any harm to the machines, right?

You will most likely damage the power supply, effectively you are asking it do double the work.

I wouldn’t do it.

Alrighty, cheers for helping me not roast my power supply :slight_smile:
