Anyone have a DC 10V 900mA adapter? UK plug and voltage input please. I have some little JVC speakers that want one - they'll run off batteries, but I don't know how long they run on a set of six AAs (yes I know I could figure this out from the above but I can't be bothered so hah) and I'm thinking recharging the batteries all the time might get a bit old (although I'd be willing to do it if I had enough sun to use my solar charger, and could get all six batteries in it!). I got the speakers in a second-hand shop without an adapter. They have reasonable sound, so if I can get an adapter I'd quite like to do so.

With the departure of the larger CD/tape/radio thing I've got more shelfspace than before, yay. Now I can put books on it, or take some things off my desk, or something. Also I can start using the pillowspeaker at night if I fancy it, and next-door flatmate Amy has a CD/tape/radio thing so she can listen to music.

So tonight, instead of writing an essay like a good little ewt, I am cleaning my room like a good little ewt. Except, I haven't finished yet and I'm starting to run out of steam. Oops. Naughty ewt. Still, I tell myself, some progress is better than no progress.

This place desperately needs hoovering. If I can get the floors clear enough to hoover, even if I just do middles, it will make it look MUCH MUCH BETTER.

go to the nearest electric store .. or toy store for that matter, they have combo adapters.. normally ranging from 3-12volts..most of them have a variaty of plugs attached to them. if that doesnt help.. go find an old radio and take out the transformer, then you solder in 4 singledirections to make a bridge and after that just add resistance until speakers work ..

hmmm.. that would ofcourse require some measuring gadgets ... find someone who has an old nokia charger .. that should do the trick

10V? that's a bit of an awkward amount. You could try what 9V does - chances are big that it'll work, considering that it needs 6 AA batteries (at 1.5V,
for a grand result of 9V straight out of the package). 9V is a somewhat more standard voltage. As for the current: it doesn't hurt if the PS can deliver more.

I have small Philips speakers, and they too run on batteries or an adapter. I also had an adapter for an USB hub that works perfectly well without the adapter but screws over my computer with it. So tijntje has put another plug on it for me. The voltage is not quite right (5 when the speakers wanted 6) but apparently for speakers this does not matter a whole lot.

Good luck finding something!

While installing an iLo into a server i noted that the power supply that is didn't need is 10v (1500mA max). It has a positive centre core. If you want it, it's yours.
