I bought a Trisonic TS-506B AC-DC adapter that allows you to choose the ouput voltage: 1.5-3-4.5-6-7.5-9-12. The purpose of this was to power my breadboard and to also be used for an arduino board every now and then. I cut off the tip to expose the wires, and after pulling out my multimeter have found that the voltages are highly innaccurate. At first I would see voltages of about 5.5 DC when the setting was on 3, but now no matter how I have it set I measure approx 12V. Is there a problem with the adapter?
I'd also like to point out that there are switches for polarity and also for input voltage (100-120 AC or 200-240AC). I've tried both so could I have put too much voltage in it or something? I'm using a standard wall outlet.
If anyone could provide guidance I'd appreciate it.
