What would happen if you hooked two of these together? Would you get 1000 mw, stay at 500mw or wreck the second one?

The dual antenna configuration would interfere with each other and make matters worse.

This is an amplifier. Amplifiers remain linear only up to a certain level of input beyond which they saturate. So my guess is that the output will remain at 500mw with some distortion.

I would say dont go lower then 1000w, because the card itself draws around 500 i believe.

Yes... I guess, but it is way over kill. You will only be able to use 1---and even that will be a bit too much current. Theye did work great for the price... but I think it could cause too strong current in a 10 Gal.

I used 1000mA for three at the same time. However, I had a hard time in the beginning to energize them for the first time. Now they all work perfectly. Also, depending the distance from the power source, it will not allow you to share the same power supply with others. It's a little tricky, but works very well.

I believe it all depends on how much power you plan to draw. I connected both.

I went overboard and got a 300 watt power supply so I could power repeaters from same power source. Currently running two for a total of 6 strips and a little room to grow.

Yes, but you would need a massive power supply at least 1200 plus gold rated. And like Umardilse stated...they must come from the same power supply. Make sure you have enough room in your case to fit them both in.

In practice these things are pretty robust. As long as you do the adjustment while there's no output load (just your meter connected) and don't exceed the maximum rated input voltage, you're unlikely to fry it.EDIT: It sounds like one blew up on you, sorry to hear that. This is surprising to me, since the LM2587 has undervoltage lockout. I bench tested this for my application (dropping the input voltage until the thing turned off) successfully several times under 10W load.

no they will be the same as 2. the difference is in the power they will not blow.

Depends on what your pushing but it hasn't over heated yet for me an I have 2 1000watt machine subs

Yes....because the rms is what you ate going to be losing at normal power anyway....it would power more bridged.

I would consider the more powerful one, to be on a safe side I would use have a transformer that is by spec capable of at least 30% more than the max power of you tool.. in your case at least 1000W.

Not to power a single 2000 watt load. You cannot connect the outputs. But you can tie two inverters in parallel to the same battery bank to have two separate 1000watt, 120volt sources.

I suggest you buy a converter which supports power at least 3 times larger than what you really need, this will make you less trouble. Thus for your PS, 500W seems good enough.
1802907
In general the power source should be with minimum 100W more. You need 1000W model or 1500W if the 1000W don't exist. 750W it is too risky.

Not for me so far I run 2@ 285 watt and they have been working for over a year now . Make sure you ground your equipment properly .

700+ depending on how much hardware you're pushing but I dropped out the extra and went for the 1000w for the potential future.
