Will this 5 volt ac adapter work with a weather radio that requires 5 volt AC adaptor with 500 ma?
1068863
Yes, it should, based on capacity. My adapter is rated for 2000 ma, so you'd only be taxing 1/4 of its maximum rating. But make sure the plug on the other end is the correct size (diameter). I had to re-wire mine.

I think that if what you have isn't listed in the description as working with this adapter, you should search for an adapter that works specifically for the weather radio you have. I bought this one for my Inno, only because Inno was listed in the description.
1068865
Yes, with 2A output this is more than capable. But the other important details are the size and polarity of the connector: this is about 1/8" diameter with a center positive connection. It is fairly unique in size and you need to make sure it will fit your application.

This adapter is rated at .4 amps (400 ma). If your system needs 500 ma, it may work but you may lose features. I would look for an adapter that matches your rating.

Im not sure, I used it for my plug & play xm radio. You should check on the net, look up the radio and contact the manufacturer they should be able to tell you, because I bought a few that didn't work, wasted money on my part.

It works with mine, which is an "FC NOAA Weather Radio WR200" -- from LLBEAN. Couldn't find any better identification of the manufacturer.

I can't specifically answer the question but written on the adaptor is: Output: 5V--2.0A Max

A DC adaptor can be purchased at Radio Shack, It takes a 12volt adaptor. Bring your radio to to size the the plug in.

"Powered by DC 12V 500mA adaptor (not included)"So any 12v adapter, that provides 500ma (0.5a) or more will do.

No it will not without an adaptor...this antenna has an RCA Plug on it...that's the way it comes...works perfectly with Midland weather radios...

Radio Shack--for about $30. They claim that it will work. Enercell 12V/1500mA AC Adapter. I need one also. Now! The cost is half the cost of my speakers and I am bedridden. I need it morning after tomorrow. Pissed.

Patrick: I cannot answer your question directly except to say that I looked up the spec's for your radio and it says that the vehicle power cord for this unit is rated at 5v output so it shoud work properly, (especially if the plug going into the radio fits properly). I hope this helps.... If it blows out the radio, then there is too much power going to the radio. If on the other hand, the power cord blows out and NOT the radio, then there is too much power going into the adaptor and it will blow the fuse therein. Make sure you only have 12v going into the power cord fromt he vehicle's battery.

Logically "yes" if it supplies 5V and at least 500 mha per USB specifications. Look at the power source.
2181216
Yes. I have tested this unit with a 5-ohm power resistor as load. It is able to provide 1A of output current at 5V.

The answer depends on how much power the unit draws. If it draws 5 amps or less, it should work.

It has it's own software. It is powered with a 220 plug in. Not sure about weather station power supply

Sorry...I didn't buy the AC adaptor; I use the radio for just a few minutes each day, so I get by on just battery power.

I don't know the specs on the one you show in the photo, but mine (the one that came with the radio) says, "AC/DC Adapter, Class 2 Adapter, Input: 120V AC, 60Hz, 55mA. Output: 5.0V DC, 500mA." If your charger matches these specs, you should be OK.

Prior to answering, I carefully reread the instructions. No where is this question answered or addressed. I simply don't know. Technical info from instructions:" Power requirements: DC Adapter: 9vcd, 500 mA. Sorry!

yes - you need a converter - check voltage/current needed on unit, get one from amazon, or goodwill - radio shack will cost more!
2221501
Yes, if you are using the RC-3 or the RC-30. They both draw less than 300mA. However, if you have either the RC-300 or the RC-505, they draw more than 300mA and this adapter cannot source that much current.

no just 120v adapter.... You would have to go to radioshack for that. This is a bit big for car use. I would not use it for that...
