Been away for awhile. Can I use the cable I had for my 15-1994 for a new Radio Shack 15-2116?
Thanks

Yes, it should work. However, if you built the cable based on old instructions, it may have included 10K resistors and a "normal" diode. The new instructions recommend 1K resistors and a Schottky type diode. These changes are really only for improved voltage compatibility and your old cable may work just fine. |

The new design is to make the cable more compatible with laptops, if your cable works with your 15-1994, it'll probably work with your 15-2116 _________________ Rob
