Running PD Board from an outlet

[andreboos]

I've used a car battery charger to power a minimal control system (digital sidecar, cRIO, camera, single motor) through a power distribution board. I'm guessing this power isn't much cleaner than that from the car adapter. Does the dirty power permanently damage parts or is it simply unreliable?

I have also used a PC power supply to power the newer cRIO directly (accepts as few as 9 volts) but have not attempted to power anything through the PDB.
