PE Kit Power Source

A quick question about the PE KIt. I use it for almost all my Propeller learning.

In the last day I've gone through two 9-volt batteries working on my accelerometer project. It occurred to me I have a couple of 9.6V-1600mAh r/c battery packs. Would there be any problems powering the PE Kit from one of these? I'm thinking it "should" be okay. Perhaps a bit more heat for the voltage regulators to dissipate, but I'm guessing it'd be safe.

    I use one for a demoboard, one for my PE kit, and a third for a proto board, so yes it will work great.

    Thanks Andrew!

    I'd already made the adapters to make the connection. Just waiting for someone to say okay!
