RC +5V Pin Voltage
Has anyone actually measured the +5V pins on their RC under normal operating conditions? I was curious and measured ours and both our 2007 and 2008 RC output 6.9V on these pins under no load. I thought the RC had an onboard 5V regulator which should mean these pins are at 5V, not 6.9. If the output from these pins is not actually regulated, then this would make more sense.
