Warp 12v conversion..Please read

[Krazy Ivan]

Didn't even think of that. Thanks bro.

I think I'll mess around with soldering some stuff, but I'm letting my buddy solder together the whole 12v reg thing. I'm looking into having him make a clip for it, so I can have it on a 12v (2 batteries) or one 9v.

Thinking along the lines of the shocker batteries. You know how the shocker has the harness, and the 9v "conversion" is just a 9v clip with the harness thing. I want to grab a couple of harness things. Do they sell them assembled?

I just thought of something. You know how a shocker has the battery clip that you use to swap in new batteries. Can you use the same sort of clip on a warp to swap between a 12v and 9v? Where would I get such a clip/receiver.

I ask because that would effectively be a on/off switch also which I really didn't want to have to drill out a hole for.

you shouldn't need anything special to switch between battery configs.

your setup should more or less be in this order:
[9v-9v]-battery snap-voltage reg-battery clip-warp

just unclip the voltage reg mass, take it out of the battery compartment, and hook a 9v back upto the snap on the warp.

I didn't realize it would be just 3 battery snaps. My bad. I was thinking the battery snap would have been cut so that you could just hook directly to the circuit board.

My bad^2

last thing..I promise

Ok, this is the last thing, I promise. How the hell do I fit all that into the Warp with 2 9v batteries?

using robs way... you dont you hook into and external power supply.... such as the emag battery.....


for those of us w/o that option..... there is the PTP way which uses the same reg in a different config...... i have 2 of them and they work great....

i just to find my multi meter and clean out rat shack of all the regs and battery snaps and start building my own to sell.... mostly for those that cant soder their way out of a paper bag and for those that just dont want to deal with making one them selves.... but like i said... 1st i need to dig up my multimeter....

that and it will make one heck of a goverment project at work =)
