Maybe it's the Scrooge in me, but I've got
a couple of wall warts (power

either multi-voltage or have unusual enough ratings (e.g. 18 vdc @ 1500 ma)
that I'm reluctant to scrap them.
Does anyone have a sure-fire method for getting into the case such that it
can be reclosed? I was thinking about using a saw blade on a Dremel to
separate the case halves.
Not "sure fire", but the first thing I'd try is a swab soaked in acetone
(nail polish remover :-) along the seam...
I've had some luck with that, anyhow.
I've tried that too. I think the hammer trick works better.
