Ok, for real this time, who has bought a 9V power adapter for this thing that actually works? I'm having trouble finding one.

It's the polarity which is reversed and don't ask me to explain that. I finally gave up and started using batteries. It works fine and the batteries last a pretty long time. Good luck.

Sorry I live in Australia and had to buy a universal power adaptor... works perfectly with that.

I have to add that mine was roasted by an ex-girlfriend in Ireland who couldn't tell the difference between the adapters that change the plug and adapters that also change the voltage. She figured it out after smoke started pouring from my charger. Finding a charger alone for a reasonable price is damn near impossible.

Hi, the power supply that worked for me was this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0038L3OWO/ref=ox_ya_os_product Best to you...

no, that one I sent it back, because it didn't have power adapter. be aware if it doesn't mention about power adapter, it mean there isn't one

I would no rush to replace the power adapter just yet. If you can-try a similar power adapter with the same power and plug. IF you have one you can try it and see if the monitor fires up. If you have a compatible battery you can also try that. Normally the power adapter is OK. It is probably the monitor itself. I have never found a defective power adapter in all of my 52 years. I have seen circuit boards that are faulty on new products. If all else fails-ask the gift giver to exchange it for you.

This item is available at "Amazon" ! Look for "Philmore" and "Jameco Electronics" power adapters. Thank You for your inquiry. Clyde

Just received mine and it came with a AC adapter that fits my outlet into the converter. I thought that it was non standard battery powered so this should be a plus. Now to find out if it actually works.

I would recommend visiting your local electronics store and asking them to show you a power adapter. something that will convert the voltage. this may be known as a voltage converter or voltage adapter. The best thing to do would be bringing the unit to the store so they can view the plug that it comes with. there are many adapters available. some are made specifically for certain types of plugs. if there is anything else, please let us know.

I found this one on Amazon.com & will work for you, there are a few to choose from at different prices. Just cut & paste this and put in the Amazon.com Search Box: NEW AC Adapter Power Supply for Compaq Presario M2000 V2000 V4000 V5000 by Systems Integration Business

There are listings that show a power adapter suitable. I do not have one, but it is avaiiable.

the blue power adaptor you are talking about is called "inverter". You need that one for it to work.

When we purchased ours it came with an AC power adapter. I know Radio Shack carries adapters that have variable voltage, perhaps they or a store similar to them could help you in selecting one.

I've had two of these, and both arrived with generic power adapters. The first one ruined the laptop fast. When I got the 2nd one, I immediately contacted the seller and requested a genuine Dell adapter,and they complied. But it didn't help. My 2nd laptop was totally fried after having it for just barely a year. So even a Dell adapter doesn't help. But yes, it comes with one.

do you have a version of this hub that has or can support at least 12V and (4A or greater amperage) or do I need to buy just the power adaptor that can support at least 12V and (4A or greater amperage)

Bruce, I got ripped off by Sunny Eco Tech. First they sent the wrong power adapter, then when I sent it back, they did not refund my money or send any merchandise. A complete rip-off. I would recomend anywhere BUT Sunny Eco Tech.

I'm looking for one too. I'll try radio Shack first... let me know if you find one & I'll do the same.
