IP CAM

Hello,

I would like to hook up a Dlink IP Cam to my EZ-B. It calls for 5V and 1.2A. Can I hook this up to the 5V output connection on the ez-b to power my IP Cam?

Thanks!

You probably can get away with it. However, you might draw so much current that you won't be able to run any servos at the same time. Worst case scenario is you blow a fuse, really.

Is the Dlink IP cam compatible with ARC? Or are you not using it

Hello DJ

If I run a 7.2V 5000mah battery to the EZ-B will I be able to power the IP cam from the ez-b 5V output?

Thanks!

You'll have to consult Mr Ohm for peripherals in addition to the camera

Worst thing that will happen is a blown fuse :)

Hello DJ

What is the max current output of the ez-b 5v regulator? I recall it saying 3.5A?

Thanks!
