11.1V for dreamcast?

[tom61]

There is a version of the PicoPSU that can take a wide range of voltage input, not just 12Volts.

My half-made DCp using a picopsu120watts runs perfectly on 11.1v even if the picopsu is suposed to take 12v!

That's good to know, but the dreamcast needs a 12V DC line, but if it could go down to say 10 or 11V that would be really nice

It also outputs 12Volts, thanks to a buck-boost converter, though it doesn't put out a lot of amps on that line. Doesn't matter much for your application it seems according to FamilyGuy's post.

The picopsu regulate the current to 12v 5v and 3.3v ; just what you need for the DC. Even if it's designed to work on a 12v input, it can handle 11.1v with no problem! THe current drawn on the 12v line by the DC is very small.

For info: my Half-made DCp ran for about 70minutes on a 2400mAh 11.1v Li-ion battery with a PSONE screen powered from a switching regulator (non LED-modded).
