<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Howdy,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I looked on the Inventronics website and didn't
see the answer to my question. I was trying to find my other adapter
for charging my ol' Accutuner I. I think I found it--a spare that I
got from Radio Shack some time ago.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The one from Radio Shack:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For 15-1832 AC Adapter</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Model:DV-1220DC Class:2</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So, does anyone know if the Radio Shack one is
OK for the Accutuner? It's the only one I have hanging around and
I can't think of anything else I would have bought it for. I don't
want to plug it in and have a catastrophe.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>It's generally best to use the same output voltage. Otherwise, you
might burn a circuit in your SAT. :-) It might indeed work, but I'd
stick with what the manufacturer says to be on the safe side.</DIV>

<DIV>In your case, you'd need a 9V (output) adapter. Radio Shack will
have what you need. Take your SAT with you, and they'll set you up.
Basically, it's as simple as getting the correct output voltage and plug
size. Plug size is not as important, but voltage usually is.
Wal-Mart would also have a generic adapter that would probably work.
Both stores probably have the universal adapters with selectable
voltage.</DIV>
