The power supply is AC. The female receptacle on the bike is about 4 - 5 inches off the ground in the front of the bike.

I found this link on Instructables to make a high efficiency voltage regulator that will give you more power to charge and operate things. It's a little bit more complex, but there are schematics and step by step directions. You could probably make it with a trip to Radio Shack or an order from one of the online electronics suppliers (Digi Key, Newark, etc.)http://bit.ly/1CJj3CAI'll try to make one because I ride a ton at night and this time of year it's dark a lot.

See page 15 of the User's Guide: http://download.nautilus.com/supportdocs/OM/schwinn/SCH_Active10-20_OM.pdfI haven't had to change mine yet so I can't be more specific.

No but one can be purchased for it. Check out: Schwinn AC Sport Indoor Cycling Bike with Mpower Echelon Console ...

It does not come with a power supply, it is USB powered. There is at least one USB that is high powered and you just need to try them and you'll find the correct one as I found that the ones with lower power outputs tend to intermittently stop sending signal to the yoke at times. Are you using one or two throttle quadrants?

My power supply got thrown into a box of other power supplies. Now I don't know which one it is. I just need to know the voltage/amp rating for mine. I found new ones here:http://www.fitnessrepairparts.com/cart/ViewItem/13002288If anyone knows what voltage these put out, it would be very helpful to me.

The big question is: Now that we have burnt out something inside the main unit, can we replace this unit with one that has been made for 240V? If anyone knows where we can source the main body of the machine with a 240V rating, please let me know. Thanks

I don't know what Gearhead's P/N is, but the Model number is Mass Power SCF 0500100A1BA. It is a "vanilla" 5VDC 1.0 Amp out, and I suspect you might be able to pick up an alternate brand replacement for about a buck at your local computer surplus store. If you can't find a matching connector and you are handy, you could salvage the connector from the original and splice it onto anybody's 5VDC Ac to dc converter (probably more effort than it is worth tho'). Good luck and happy hacking ;)

Sorry, I didn't post my entire results. I ended up replacing the DC motor for the bike twice. The second time was a charm. I now have two good control panels. I would recommend requesting the DC motor. It is not easy to replace, and there are no instructions included with it. I spent a bit of time fiddling with it to make the resistance appropriate.

This appears to be an older model that (Amazon only) has upgraded their inventory to include several new and improved components to, based on experience. The main company website still only shows one Storm model and that is a 300 Watt unit. That's why I was asking if the new metal battery rack with twice the support would fit this bike. One could buy it as a replacement item fairly cheaply and improve another weak point.

Hey William, when I ordered mine a couple years ago it did not come with the power supply. I got a couple dollar one to go with it.

This is only a best-guess, because there are different models with different displays. But if it takes 4 batteries, you're looking for a 6 volt adapter, and this one is a 12v. And 2 amps sounds a little low for a 6v display, to me (even if the display only takes 2a, it's not good to max out the adapter) -- I'd try 3a. Amazon has them, if you search for "6v 3a power adapters". They also sell little extension cords, so that you don't have to keep the exerciser right next to the wall socket. Good luck!

Go on E-Bay and type in ( Power Supply Adapter PA-11620-DVAB 11.6 VDC 200MA ) and a brand new one from CJHDIRECT STORE should come up. I think it's $16 including shipping.

My first Cyclamatic bike was defective right out of the box, and they simply replaced it, paid for shipping and everything. As far as I can tell, they supply no repair service or replacement parts. I wanted a second battery but they were never able to supply one. Now my bike is out of warrantee and the battery needs repair or replacement. I found a battery online for $500 - too much for me to spend on a bike I paid six hundred dollars for (plus a hundred dollars shipping). If anyone knows of anybody who repairs these bikes, please let me know.
