Strange problem: Replacing a battery w/ a DC power supply
Sorry for the late report back. The Variable power supply didn't work either. We ended up buying a bunch of power supply units to see if anything would work and as it turns out only one did... the one with slightly less than 12VDC and 100 mA. Anything above 100 mA wouldn't work. At any rate...- ShiftCTRL

Strange problem: Replacing a battery w/ a DC power supply
Hi Tom, I just checked the power supply I used most of the times in my test and indeed it's reading 17.8 volts when connected to the board. However the other power supply with the variable voltage power supply is tuned to supply ~12VDC to the board. I have to go to the site where this unit...- ShiftCTRL

The polarity is correct and (aside from the power supply being labeled) we also tested it. We also tried/tested a bunch of other 12V power supplies that we had without any luck.- ShiftCTRL

Strange problem: Replacing a battery w/ a DC power supply
Apologies for all the typos - I'm on no sleep... Yes, DC power supply and I meant to write mA (0.5A). The 23A battery is the model of the battery (which is 12V 60 mAh). Basically I would like to replace the battery in the wireless remote with a DC power supply. I don't have any pics with me...- ShiftCTRL

Strange problem: Replacing a battery w/ a DC power supply
Hey everyone, So I'm trying to figure out what could be causing this problem: I have a DEWENWILS Wireless Remote Wall Switch which takes a 12V battery 60 mAh(23A battery), when I replace the battery with a 12V 500 mA DC power supply, the unit stops working properly. I'm able to use the Power...- ShiftCTRL
