Power Supply Unit
The WBT Mini requires an external power supply offering 12 to 15 VDC, minimum 2.5 A.
Note
Make sure that your power supply meets the WBT Mini requirements. The voltage must not
drop below +12 VDC. If the supply power is too low, the WBT Mini may malfunction.
If you need to use a long power cable, calculate the voltage drop in the cable assuming
a current consumption of 2.5 A.
The WBT Mini can also be powered by a high-capacity battery. The battery must be placed
close to the WBT Mini to minimize power loss in the cable.
