Re: Victor 883 24v

Eric,

The older Victor 883's that were included in the FIRST kit of parts are not capable of running at 24V. The units will be damaged if 24V is applied. The Victor 883-24V that is available today was a complete redesign of the PCB.

Hello IFI,
I am sure you get these questions a lot:

Victor 883's that were provided inside the kit of parts for FIRST Robotics Competition in past years, are they able to run 24V (if the 24V fan was added)?

Also, are the new 883's different from the old 883's from inside the kit, and if so, what are the changes?

Thank You,
Eric
