However, there are a number of DC to DC converters on the market. I've used Artesyn a number of times in solar power installations. Never a complaint, and the oldest install is just over 7 years in operation now. Digikey and Mouser both stock Artesyn, and there is room in the chassis for it. Just a thought.
Pick a DC-DC converter for the 8 to 16 Vin range, to give 48VDC out. Get the power rating that applies to your mic. Probably pretty low. matt, W6NIA K3 # 24 On Mon, 07 Jan 2008 16:39:08 -0800, you wrote: >Hi Bob, > >We do not have this capability in the K3.
