    12V Trigger as a 12V Supply?

    I've been playing around with adding some ambient lighting behind my display and came up with a cute solution...

    My Rotel Processor has several 12V trigggers, and I'd like to use one of them to power a relay that I can use to turn on and off the ambient lighting with the source selected or the Processor itself.

    Anyone see any harm in this?

      Sure... if you have the means to have the trigger turn on a different piece of equipment plugged into a different electrical circuit, that would be great.

          I've got a 1067 which runs rather hot, and I'm aware that that's the norm. I'm about to place it in a custom wall unit and need a little info regarding the use of fans and a 12v trigger.

          What I'd like to do is use 2 accessory computer fans to circulate the air. One would pull in air...

          Does anyone know how many mA the 12V trigger out jacks can deliver, and if the it can be used to power a small fan?
