        <title>Running RUMBA electronics at 24 V?</title>
        <description> Hi Everyone,
I am trying to better understand the new rumba board and I had a few questions: [reprap.org]

It says that it can take 12-35V and can drive electronics at that same voltage. If I had some 12 V stepper drivers and wanted to drive a heated bed at 24 V, would that work or how exactly do you set what the voltage is for a particular thing? Can you just drive the steppers, hotend and heated bed at 24 V without issue or do I need to buy particular hardware for that? Since I thought the motors at least are constant power, P=IV so I should be able to use a smaller current but everything should be able to handle it, right?

Thanks!</description>
