Cord that attaches to the power brick?

#1 Post by Aristotle11 » Mon Apr 17, 2006 11:10 am

Hi Y'All,

I just got a 2nd power brick but it did not come with the cord that connects to the wall. It seems like it is a simple cord that should only cost a couple of bucks. Does anyone know what the cord is called and where I can get one cheap?

Thanks!
Aris

They are very common. I'm using an AC cord from an old Epson C80 printer for my 2nd power brick.

You want - RadioShack Item 61-2876 $4.29.

This cord has the figure 8 end that fits your "brick". More importantly, the AC end is NOT polarized. This is helpful if you travel.

Polarized ends don't fit in Japan, and also do not fit in some of the simple foreign adaptors that mate your plug to the local plugs.
