Specific Power Requirements For iPods?

+(Yes I searched, no I didn't find this information.)+
I am looking for specific power requirements for multiple iPod models; 1st-Generation iPod touch, 5th-Generation 80GB Video, 3rd & 4th-Generation iPod nano, and 2nd-Generation Shuffle, to be precise.
I am not looking for the obvious information found on the Apple site, such as charge times and USB vs. FireWire. I need more accurate data such as exact mAh and wattage input requirements for each iPod. I know I have chargers that will satisfy the needs of the nanos and 80GB but leave the 1st-Gen touch wanting and waiting for more. At the same time, I do not wish to overload the smaller iPod models like the shuffle.
I have searched Apple.com and the Apple forums as well as Google, but I cannot find this information anywhere.
Please help! I am trying to find suitable alternate power supplies such as solar, crank, and AA/AAA-battery backup sources and I want one that will work with all of my current iPods and hopefully future iPod purchases as well (to include many current iPods). Thank you!

I don't have the info you need on the iPods.
But I have an AC charger bought originally to use with another brand of mp3 player. After I got my iPod, I didn't see the point in buying another AC charger if it would work with iPod, since the company (Griffintechnology) also makes some for iPods. (Of course, I would have to switch out the USB cable to the one that works with iPod, but that's easy enough.) I couldn't find the info on their web site or on Apple's, so I emailed Griffin, and they told me it was safe to use with the iPod. So far, so good.
So I would suggest emailing the maker of the chargers you already own, to check on compatibility. I know Griffin makes them, as does DLO. As far as AA/AAA rechargers, we recently got one from www.adrenalinetechnologies.com (haven't yet used it, though) that's supposed to work with multiple iPod models, and they have multiple adapters and such for different things.

    the other question please, whats ur opinions about this card? is it ok with powerfull games?
    GTX 550 and GTX 650 are budget (mid-range) GPUs.
    They are good for everything (including 3D games).
    However, in complex 3D games don't expect high FPS values.
    If you play games most of the time, you should go for GTX 560 / GTX 660.

  • Power Requirements for Micro ATX Boards

    hey all,
    Are the power requirements for micro ATX boards the same as for ATX boards?
    I see micro ATX power supply rated at 250, 230, even 180 Watts and i'm wondering if that can keep a system stable.

    To my knowledge of Micro ATX PCB mobos + CPU and RAMs does not really tales up to the power requirements of an ATX PCB mobo + CPU and RAMs, so I think that 300watts will be a good bet.
    Power AMPs for individual rails as per:
    +3.3v = 20A approx.
    +5v = 28A approx.
    +12v = 16A approx.

    I just bought a new USB power adapter. I intend to use it to charge my iPod Shuffle, butt am a little suspicious about its output voltage. I tried to look everwhere on the website and even chat with the help desk, but nothing comes up !!! Unbelievable!
    Please, if you know the power voltage for the iPod shuffle, please let me know...
    Thanks

    The output of the IPod USB charger is 50-60HZ 5V 1.0 A
    Couldn't find it any where online had to go find mine.

  • Direction on safe power adapters for iPods from US to Travel in France

    Hello, I searched other topics found the Apple power adapter plug for the ipod discussesd this topic (which I do already have), but it did not SPECIFICALLY say that it will convert from US (110v) to Euro - France (220) volt. All the instructions from available power adapters (non-Apple) specifically say 'not for use with stereo or musical equipment.'
    Help ! Can I just plug in my Apple ipod power adapter INTO a standard 110v to 220v converter and not worry about problems? Do I need to look for a special voltage adapter that works between certain amps or voltage ranges?
    Best Buy, Radio Shack, Travel Smith and Sharper Image were NO help.
    Looking not to fry my 60GB video ipod during a month long trip to Europe..

    hiya!
    but it did not SPECIFICALLY say that it will convert from US (110v) to Euro - France (220) volt.
    the accepted input power range is given in the "About the Apple iPod Power Adapter's Voltage Requirements" section in this document:

  • Belkin Power Adapter for iPod mini

    I wanted a power adapter for my mini and of course, after X'mas, every store in town was out of stock for the Apple adapter. But the guy told me the Belkin Power Pack for the iPod Shuffle also works for other iPods. I bought it and thought I'd give it a whorl. But I wanted to make sure it's ok to use on my mini before I plug it into my ipod. I've done research online but I can't seem to find anything on it. So can anyone tell me if the Belkin Power Pack for the iPod Shuffle is also compatible with my iPod mini (2nd gen)? Were there any problems with using the shuffle power pack to charge the mini??
    Thanks!

    i think you should really post your own topic in the forums so that we can keep these threads specific to a topic and you get more attention for your topic and you should really try to post with better english next time with capitals and more than just one long sentence that is very hard to read.

  • Power Requirements for MacBook Pro 13 inch

    Are there lower power requirments for the 13 inch MBP from the 15 and 17 inch?
    I understand that the 15 and 17 require 85 watts of power output, but when I was shopping for a power inverter, they mention a 60 watt would work for the 13 inch MBP.
    Mostly curious. Most of the power inverters I am looking at offer more than enough output (100 watts+).
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, the smaller models use smaller batteries that do not require as high a charging power or power to run with no battery present.
    If you were to use an inverter to convert DC to AC then it's a good idea to get one with a power capability about twice what will be connected to it in order to allow for surges.

  • Power Requirement for AP 1500

    Hi Sir,
    I found the following from Mesh 1500 datasheet for its power requirement,
    95?260 VAC, 47?63 Hz
    Power over Ethernet: 48 VDC, +/?10 percent
    However, my contractor requested me to give him in Watt as UPS is provided to it. Can anyone show me the formula to do so?
    Thank you.
    Delon

    The basic rule of physics that "watts = volts x amps" is based on direct current (DC) circuits. AC is more efficient but when it hits the transformers, it suffers from reactance.
    Reactance reduces the useful power (watts) available from the apparent power (volt-amperes). Power Factor (PF) is the ratio of these two numbers. Therefore, the actual power formula for AC circuits is "watts = volts x amps x power factor." Unfortunately, the PF is rarely stated but generally is a number of 1.0 or less, and about the only thing with a 1.0 PF is a light bulb.
    Figure out total loading of product Amps (A) Watts (W).
    Multiply voltage by amps (V x A).
    VA x 135%= the size of the UPS you would need.
    * Estimated Average Growing Space 135%
    (Amps)
    A. Ex: 1 PC= 2A 1 Monitor=1.5A, Total= 3.5A
    3.5A x 120V= 420VA x 130%= 546VA.
    B. Ex: 1 DVR = 300 Watts, 5 CCTV = 350 Watts, Total = 650 Watts
    W = P.F. x VA, Direct UPS JP X series P.F = 0.7 & VP series = 0.6
    650 W = 0.7 x VA , VA =650w/0.7, Total Loading = 929VA
    Right size UPS: 929 VA x 135% = 1254VA.
    The recommended size UPS for example a. is 600VA
    The recommended size UPS for example b. is 1400VA

  • Power Requirements for the V490

    We are ready to install a V490 and I can't find the appropriate information regarding the electrcal requirements for the V490. All I get is the standard "AC Power --- 200 - 240 VAC, 47 - 63 Hz, 2078 VA". With 2 power supplies, the AC requirements do not list as per power supply or per system. Does anyone know the requirements for each power supply? The electricians won't start till they get confirmation on the requirements.
    Thanks

    ThanksEach power supply is capable of powering the entire server, so each will need the full input if the other supply fails.

  • Power requirements for surge protector?

    I want to get a surge protector that will support the power requirements of a Macpro and a 30-inch cinema display. I would also like it for an Airport Extreme and an external FW drive, though those are not as important for being on the same outlet, they can be on a different one if necessary. What should I look for in terms of power ratings, etc.
    Thanks!

    Stanwelks,
    I sit near a forest of cables and had that problem. The instruction books on the Display and the Macpro have information enabling you to work out the Amperage they use. One can derive amperage from a stated wattage knowing your voltage. I know mine I don't know yours. Here in UK most residential wall sockets take up to 13 Amps. Most plug blocks say they are good for 13 Amps. So in the train it is the smallest capacity of link, socket or plug block , that matters.
    I had to put some devices (the display and MacPro were the worst 'offenders', on a separate wall socket linked to my 'lair' by a long cable. There was slight leeway to the 13Amps so a printer (seemingly of low amperage) is added.
    The other things you mention are small amperage but check. It is a good idea to work out the amperage of each device you have if you can.

  • Power requirements for a 1042 mesh network

    this note is from the 5508 controller config manual, does this apply to 1040 access points in a mesh network?
    Note:The recommended power source for MAPs is either a power supply or power injector. PoE is not a recommended power source for MAPs.

    No, that would be about the 15xx series of MESH AP.

  • Is it possible to use the firewire power adapter for ipod to charge an Ipad

    There is information everywhere that the Ipad doesn't charge with low power adapters.
    The first power adapter I received with my first Ipod was the firewire power adapter and it allows intensities even higher than the 10 W Ipad adapter.
    Could this old adapter be used with Ipad
    Model n. A1070 output 12V 6.7 A if I believe what is written on it.

    You should only use a USB-type charger for the ipad. Any other charger is risking damage to the ipad.
    The ipad uses 5Volts at 2 amps for best charging. This is why it came with the wall charger.
    You can charge it with any 5 Volt USB charger as long as the output amps is approximately 1 amp or more. If the amps rating on the charger is less than 2 amps, it will charge slower, but it is safe. The ipad will only draw the current it requires, but any voltage higher than 5 volts is risking damage to the ipad.
    Hope this helps.

  • Usb superdrive specifications - power requirement

    I have just purchased a new Mac Pro. The number of USB ports is a bit disappointing so I need a USB 3.0 hub but one that has enough power to run an Apple superdrive.
    I cannot find the specifications for the superdrive on the Apple website. Does anyone have a link to these specs or know the requirement to power such a device.
    Can anyone recommend a good USB 3.0 hub as well as a good CF card reader.
    Regards

    It requires more power than is normally allowed for an USB device and therefore may not function with a hub.

  • Portable power charger for ipod touch/classic

    I found this online; http://www.sourcingmap.com/black-travel-charger-pack-for-apple-iphone-ipod-p-405 93.html
    & again on another website; http://www.uxsight.com/product/36886/black-travel-charger-pack-for-apple-iphone- ipod.html
    what does anyone think to these? I am looking for a charger that is compact, as most AC power adapters are squarish shaped & too bulky to carry in a little kit.
    has anyone used one of these? are they reusable? or are they meant for a one time emergency charge? where do they get their power from to charge the ipod? are they worth the $17.00 odd dollars? would they work for my ipod touch 2and gen 8 gb, & my 160gb 6th gen ipod classic?

    They come with a cable that connects to a charger, this device is in essence a spare battery. You have to charge it from the wall.
    I prefer this one as a wall charger:
