Title: Lost my charger! Need Specs for Initial 9V/5400mAh RB-270 Rechargeable
Post by: Gr8ful98 on July 23, 2009, 09:35:05 PM
I'm on the road for work(Miami)...lost my power adapter (or thingy the plugs in the wall & charges my lithion Ion Battery)
I get home late Friday night(Orlando) & head to ATL for a MOFRO show Saturday, very little time for shopping

I have the "Wally World" Initial 9V/1500 mAh rechargeable battery

I went to Radio Shack & they asked me what the voltage & amperage is for the power adapter,
since I lost the thing...I don't know!

Can someone please tell me EXACTLY what to ask for when I go back tommorrow morning

Thanks Everyone

All the batteries I've used take 12V, 1A, center positive.

But, a far better solution is to get a car adapter, just the part that plugs in, and the right connector and charge from your car!

"All the batteries I've used take 12V, 1A, center positive"

Can anyone confirm this!? 

I've been searching online & found this fact:
Power Adapter Input: 100-240 volts; 50/60 Hertzs  0.3 amperes maximum

Is this what I tell the guy at Radio Shack?

I wish I knew more about electricity etc...just really want to tape & fee dumb for losing the charger
I've got about 4 hours to buy this adapter.

Help Please

I have two different style chargers that came with the RB-270 wallyworld batts - one label reads

Switching adapter
Model: ADS-1210PC
Input: 100~-240V~ 50/60Hz
   max 0.3A
Output: 12V 1.0A center +

the other reads

Switching Adapter
Model: SYS1298-1812-W2
Part No:SYS1298-1212
Input: 100-240V~ 1.0A MAX
  20-30VA,50-60Hz
Output:12V 1.0A center+
Output Power: 12W MAX.

Both charge the ww batts I have and I can't tell any difference in charging time between the 0.3A and the 1.0A inputs.
