zerocool22 Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Hello, I am thinking about setting up a studio back at home. And for audio I want to use my zoom H6N and sennheiser mk416 with phantom power (and the zoom h6N is connected to the camera as well, as I dont want to sync in post). But I dont want to change batteries all the time. So I know you can plug it in your pc with USB and then your pc powers the zoom h6n. But could I just use a USB wall socket and power it that way? Or would I blow up the Zoom H6N? Not an electrician over here, so might be a very noob question. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anaconda_ Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 When in the field, I always power my h6 with a USB power bank and never have any issues. I'm sure a wall USB socket will be fine. zerocool22 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsandas Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I got the H6 Accessory Pack back when I bought my zoom, and the AC adapter that comes with that pack is literally a USB wall socket, so you'll be fine. In fact, I think I've used other USB sockets far more often than the original one. The original Zoom unit's output is 5.0V and 1.0A. zerocool22 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
