DC 6V; 600mA.
Hi Sellam,
Could you tell him the polarity of the connections too? I just thought of
this. It may be important for him if he has to replace the connector on a
new generic adapter or and old, used unit. Power connector polarity may not
be marked on the 5300CS as it occasionally is on computers, radios, tape
decks, stuff.
Just so no one passes out, no I did not hook up 6 vdc to my beauty 5300CS
(it gets a factory Apple unit).
I would appreciate any "hot tips" on the connector polarity for the HX-20.
Also I was serious about the generic aspect, ie should I hunt down the real
thing or will Radio Shack work fine (not really the Rat Shack since I have
boxes now of different adapters)?
