TRANSFORMERS

This MW® regulated power operates on 120 VAC and delivers constant accurate power to a video game, radio, portable TV, or any device drawing up to 2.0 amps. The 5 1/8" x 3-7/8" x 2-5/8" housing has a rotary dial to designate 3, 4.5, 6, 7.5, 9 or 12 VDC output, and heavy-duty red and black binding posts. Automatic short circuit and overload protection and thermal cutoff. Add the mini plug kit or the alligator test clip leads. The mini plug kit contains six of the most popular DC plugs for DC powered devices such as portable TV sets, video games and radios. "Gator" clips are 36" long with one red and one black lead.

There is an entire class of transformers that surplus dealers call "AC Adapters." What we really mean is transformers or wall warts that plug directly into the wall (primary voltage 110 VAC), and via a cord and/or plug provide various levels of output current at various voltages. It is a rare buyer of surplus that gets the plug configuration he/she wants, and many get snipped off (plugs that is). They are handy power supplies, battery charging units, substitutes for batteries in toys and games, or for providing safe illumination to models and displays. Be sure to note whether the output is AC or DC (Direct Current, like a battery) and whether it can provide enough current for your application. Unless otherwise noted, all are suitable for indoor use only. Stick with us and you'll get the hang of adapting to AC...and at much lower prices than your friendly appliance/game/computer/calculator shop asks. Unless otherwise noted, all adapters are for 115 volt AC primaries, and all have about 6 ft. cords. (MA=Milliamp) (A=Ampere) (VDC= Volts DC) (VAC= Volts AC).

This mounted AC transformer from Symbol® accepts a 100-12OV input by default, but can be reset for 220-240V, and has a 15 or 18VAC output on the outer pins of a 4-PIN plug. Draws 100W, and output should be approx 6A. Housing is 5-3/4" deep x 3-1/2" wide x 5-1/4" tall counting the little rubber feet on the bottom. You add an IEC cord for power. UL/CSA.
