Combining three outputs? (current)

Post by chrisross »

So the current doubler cable will take two 9v 100mA outputs and combine them to one 9v 200mA output.

Is there a way to combine three 9v 100mA outputs to get one 9v 300mA output?

Here's a potential thought/approach: could I use two current doubler cables?

So if I have three 9v 100mA taps, I combine two using a current doubler cable to get 9v 200mA, then connect another doubler cable between the newly made 200mA tap and the third 9v 100mA tap to get a sum total of 9v 300mA.

In theory this works because you can use a current doubler cable to combine two outputs with different current ratings, so essentially what you are doing is combining a 9v 200mA tap to a 9v 100mA tap.

But reality is different than theory..
