MUSTEK 1200LP

ASUS ASTRA 6450

I need to know the proper power adapter (transformer) output
for either or both of these scanners, if I can be so lucky that
someone out there happens to have one.

Output voltage and amperage are probably what I need.

Thanks

Proper input voltage/current needed by each scanner should be on the
scanner itself (such as +12vdc @ 1.5 amps.) Check near to where the
power adapter plugs in. LOOK CLOSELY.

That's what I thought. I looked, but didn't see anything. I'll look
again. Thanks

You're right! I found the spec on both. I indeed had to look hard.

The UMAX ASTRA 6450 needs 12V 1.7A - closest I have is 12V 1.5A,
Do you know if the 6450 has an on/off switch hidden somewhere? I sure
don't see it, but then, it is proving out that I am blind anyway.

Thanks

The current needs to be higher than what the device uses.

Plenty dont.
