Sweet math equation! I did a similar calculation myself last night and came up with almost the same answer. The thing is, most Casio keyboards will work form varying degrees of current and voltage. For example, I have a Casio MT-68, and the original adapter for it was 7.5V at 600mA. I cobbled together an adapter for it, by splicing a good plug onto a 7.5V at 200mA power supply. 600mA -200mA ------ 400mA - That's how much power (current) I'm missing. Using your sweet equation I find out that I'm missing 400mA. And yet it works fabulously. An MT-68 is not very computery though, and can run from lower power. If you lower the power enough it will actually play quieter, rather than not operate at all (I think). The CZ-101 needs more current, but I'm guessing it also has a narrower range of operation. So the question is really: for people who have made their own power supplies, do you have any clue about the range of operation in a CZ-101?
