 Well, There are 12VDC, 1.5A Wall adapters for $12.95 from H&R at 1-800-848-8001
with their part number TM91ADR1844. or Jameco at 1-800-831-4242 with part
number 101291 for $9.95

 Have no interests with either compony except received their catalog and ordered
some from Jameco. They both have minium order amount (~$25) and do take creit 
card.
