scorpion 0 Posted May 15, 2008 Is there power local to where you are going to mount the camera? Depending on the wire it may be to far to send the 9 volts. Is the camera AC, or DC? I find most cameras are 9 volts DC. If the AC adapter is used you will need to rectify the AC back to DC before you get it to the camera. You could send 12 volts DC, and see if it drops to 9 volts at 300 feet. I cut the transformer wire, and then I use butt connectors to reattach them to 2 conductor wire so that I can remote the camera. Just pay attention to the stripe on one side of the wire.
