thegamezmaster Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) Hi, I have one but no power supply. Searched the net with no luck. It takes 4 C batteries and the ac plug says 6 volts. Does anyone know what power supply I can use? Does anyone know the power ratings to use? Help please, thanks in advance!

thegamezmaster Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 Found an other ac adapter rated 6v dc 200mh. Measured with my meter on the plug and it read 9.8 volts with no load. Can this be used or what do I need to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan_65 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I am thinking about picking one of these up with out the power supply also. Did you have any luck finding a replacement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimpmaul69 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Found an other ac adapter rated 6v dc 200mh. Measured with my meter on the plug and it read 9.8 volts with no load. Can this be used or what do I need to do? this is perfectly normal. it will work fine. only regulated power supplies have accurate voltages and few things like battery chargers are that picky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thegamezmaster Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 (edited) Read the PS wrong it's 6vdc and 100mh, is that still ok to use? Which wire do I attach to which part of the plug? How should it read when measuring? Thanks!

ApolloBoy Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 100 mA (not mH) should be fine, especially considering that's the amperage of the original PSU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what the tips are? Which is positive and which is negative? Can't find anything and don't want to ruin anything. Appreciate any help. New to doing this and trying to learn. Thanks!
