Re: [CZsynth] Re: DIY AC Adapter for Casio CZ-101

Howdy,

 Like I said, go to Jameco.com. Regulated unregulated,
slimline(they all live on the SAME power strip)
supplies 9V at 800 ma to 1A starting at $4.50 and
going up to about $12. I do not think the original
supply was regulated, so youcould buy a 9V 1A supply
for about$5 plus alittle shipping. Might as well get a
catalog, you'll see lots of other stuff I'm sure you
will want.
