I wasn't sure where to put this but since it related to an FPV, thought i'd start here. Moderators, of course move this to more relevant forum if exists.
I'm using a 4s (16.8v at max voltage) battery to power a TS832 transmitter that is rated at either 7-15v or 7-16v (depending on what part of the manual you look at. don't you love that?) I could buy a cheap voltage regular that would drop to 12 volts but that would be an overkill as I really don't need voltage regulation since the TS832 already has one. I just want to drop the input voltage by 3 volts. Been a long time since DeVry (lol. 30 years) so I've lost my electronics know how. What resistor would i need to put in series with this transmitter's power input to limit the current to the rated 220mA?
Thanks.
