I have a battery powered device.
I'm sick of changing the 3 AA batterys every second day.
I have some old modem power supplys which supply 6V.
It smells like "voltage divider". You put the device in series with a resistor and connect them to the modem power supply.
The formula should be:
Rvoltagedivider=(Upowersupply - Udevice)/I
I should be the maximum supported current of the device. It doesn't have it printed on, so I took the specification of the power supply (200mA), hoping it will neither be too much or not enough for the device
I calculated the formula, (6-4,5)/200*10^-3=7,5
Will a 10 Ohms Resistor be right ?
