Hello. Pretty sure I know the answer, but wanted to double check. Is there anything wrong with or possibly dangerous with running multiple pumps off of an single adequately rated power adapter??? Say if I wanted to run 2 Tunzes rated for 12V 1.2amp off of a single 12V adapter rated for 3amp.....shouldn't be any issues there right??? Just trying to minimize the power bricks in my equipment cabinet :)
 
i don't see why not, but i would up the amps on the adaptor, just due to startup surge...
Thanks!!! I'm actually thinking I should go with something a bit more reliable like a Mean Well driver with a higher amperage instead of cheapo brick off Amazon. With the higher amps I feel a lot better leaving the house with something from Mean Well :)
