ReUsing Power Wart Devicer Connectors
Posted: Sat Jul 14, 2012 4:04 am
I have many power warts from everything from a shaver to a Zip drive. They have such a variety of size plugs I need the connectors that are in devices. The male socket has a male center pin and female outer connector.
A Sony Walkman has a special small size plug, so I need proper small mating connector. It is smaller than 2.1mm which is one of 2 common sizes 2.1mm & 2.5mm Got those from http://www.ebay.com but I need smaller & bigger size connectors. Some are as small as 0.7mm and the laptops power connectors are bigger than 6+mm. Radio shack has about 15-20 connectors for the Enercell Adaptaplug series power replacement line connectors each size corresponding to a letter & colored ring on the from of the plug
Some op amp circuitry needs 2 polarity power ,so 2 warts can power these circuits. Some warts have significant power output. Thought I saw a project or something in N&V about using different size warts. It may have been years ago. What sizes are available and where to get them?
