i have just bought some sony cameras that require 24vac power, that require 2.5 watts to operate.

would a power adaptop that outputs 24vac at 500ma be ok or not?, i was just going to use a standard adapter for about a fiver.

if this is not powerful enough, does anyone know wheere i can get one that is powerfull enough

cheers

yes it should be fine, it will want about 100mA (well 104) but a poor power supply can damage a camera and can certainly affect picture quality.

You sure its AC?

yer im sure, i have some domes running off cheap 12v dc adapters and the image is fine, its just these new sony ones require 24v ac (clearly labeled on the camera)

also think ill upgrade the power supply to a regulated one for the new sonys.

Think James was wondering if the PSU you have is 24v ac, not the camera.

I might be wrong!

i dont have any 24v ac psu yet, the sony camera requires a 24vac psu lol
