I saw a few people mention that they like to use the enercell power adapter to run a higher voltage. I've been itching to try 5v with my 510 so I swung over to the local rack shack and picked up the 2000maH unit with the selectable voltages.
Here is where I stopped and thought I should seek some input: My atty measures around 2 ohms, so at 5v I'll be drawing 2.5A. This is above the rating on this unit! Are you guys just letting it fly and hoping it doesn't destroy the enercell supply? I considered placing a resistor in series with the atty to bring it down to 2A as the unit is rated for, but if I do that what's the gain in even going to 5v since I would get more current than that with a freshly charged battery.
So I guess I'm really asking that if you use one of these wall unit to drive your pv could you describe your setup to me?
