Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

Thanks for the info!  You don't have to dig out your PSU though,
because I actually have an original one.  I'm trying to make a second
one for a different CZ-101.

The original adapter I have is a Casio AD-5U.
9V at 850mA, positive on the outside of the barrel.

Thanks!
