@@drselim turns out the power supply couldn't handle two servos, one will just randomly go 180 to the right and die, the other one will die soon after.
@@rumpy3025 I see. As another reference: The powerbank I use in the video is 5000mAh and from its two USB outputs, it supplies power to the MSP430 launchpad and the L298N motor driver which has two 6V DC motors attached.
If your power source is reliable (regular powerbanks or the usb output port of a phone charger etc.) you won’t have a problem. Just be careful not to short circuit the cables. Nearly all my portable projects make use of such a cable. You can check out the wireless gas sensor node video which supplies 5V to the gas sensors. I also used the cable for servos.
thanks
Love it! Thanks
You're welcome
Good job
Thanks!
if i solder 3 wires on each positive and negative wire, will each of the three cables get 5v?
Using it to power two servos and a lazer diode.
Hi, yes, (if your source is sufficient to supply necessary power to these components)
@@drselim Alright, thank you for the reponse, especially this fast.
@@rumpy3025 you’re welcome

Is it safe i use this for an Arduino and servo's?
