9 Volt adaptor Sure?

Omega99 has good info !

I built the jaycar kit and I was tearing my hair out as to why the read LED was not flashing? The voltages checks were around the max232 chip measured @ 4.52 V.
I swapped the power adaptor with another 9 V and low and behold, the bugger started to work.
Final votage checks around the max232 were a steady 5V.
Now I can read the cards

Cheers
