Re: Power Converter

The FIRST wiring diagram shows it coming out of the regular 12v power supply for the Robot Radio, and then going through this DC-DC converter.

The thing is, the power supply for the robot radio already has a DC-DC converter (it keeps it at 12v, even if the battery drops below).

Has anyone tested this?
Won't there be horrible harmonics from powering one switcher off another?
