Re: Battery Power Supply

sima - that's good to hear. I have also found that my surplus A123 26650 batteries sitting in a cool room keep charged up for months at a time without aparent discharge. They are truly superb batteries and well above most others. I tried to find what current draw your RR-777 takes and found this qu...

Re: Battery Power Supply

I finally did the 12v with A123 batteries and could not be happier! Funny thing is that those batteries were siting unused for almost 3 years! The verdict for using with RR-777: Compared to lithium battery.......if effect of the unit with Lithium was 5, then with A123 it got to 9-10 scale. This was ...

Honestly, I'm so happy with my system, that I could not imagine how will Regen be able to improve more! But, it did! :) My USB chain is this: JCAT Femto => JCATUSB cable => JCAT Intona => USB adapter (...

Re: DIY Regen Battery tweak

I finally found a used Regen and I JohnKeny-ied! :) Can't be happier with the results! Thanks again to John and Pearse for simplifying this mod to the "dummy level", so even I could understand and do it! Just for the record, those soldering holes are much smaller than they look in the pict...

Re: Battery Power Supply

Thanks again, John!
And, like Jonathan said, those A123 batteries I already have and I believe that in the worst case, they will sound better with SPS connected, then those Lithium's!

Re: Battery Power Supply

Thanks John, that's excellent idea!
See, so simple, but it didn't came to my mind! :)
I will try in the next couple of days and report back!

Re: Battery Power Supply

Sima, I think the best way to answer your questions is to try these things & report back with your observations or questions - just as you say, no one can know if a Schuman resonator does anything audible unless they try one. The question is would a linear PS make an audible difference, compare...
