12V power supply for roborio
Has anyone ever powered a roboio (or cRio) using a plug-in 12 volt power supply? I was thinking that it would be convenient to power it that way instead of using the battery/PDP when testing out code to drive sensors, arduino, etc (anything with low current requirements).

I picture the 12 volt supply feeding directly into the PDB, or possibly right to the roborio (although that would bypass any over-voltage protection provided by the PDP).
