Be very careful. I think they removed not only the plug but the rectifier circuit so do not use the Lego supply connected to the battery terminals. They may have protection against inserting the batteries backwards but then you would be connecting (...) (25 years ago, 2-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Yeah, they'll replace them just this once... You send them your 1.0 bricks and they will replace them with 1.5 bricks. Problem solved -- no more battery packs for you. Those Lego wall warts are current limited to less than 1A (IIRC). Your battery (...) (25 years ago, 2-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
