Thanks for that. Im putting together all the calculations.
One thing I noticed though is all the modules i own together add up to 1200 mA, however this is across 12U in two G6 cases. So well within the range.
I'm finding it hard to imagine how one could run over the rating when using Doepfer modules.
The highest power requirement for a module in my system is the A188-2 at 120mA. But even if someone placed 4 of those in case at 480mA that's well below power requirements. I hope I am calculating everything correctly.
Perhaps this next question is too open,
What are some situations where one might exceed the power
So I know what to avoid.
Thanks.
