I haven't found a wall wart that doesn't introduce a fair amount of audible noise to my airhead, so I whipped up a simple SLA power supply. All it is is a 6v 4.5Ah (sealed) lead acid battery soldered to a male 5.5mm plug. The 6v seems to be the perfect size for stacking with the airhead/ipod. Runs forever without recharging.
Is there any danger in using this? Only downside i've found is that it weighs about a kg. This is perfect for desk use because I don't have to waste stupid AAA batteries.
It has been running fine for the last few weeks. I'll post picks if anyone wants to see. Does anyone have questions or comments, or should I get rid of the battery before my system explodes?
