I'd like a small powersource I can plug into a wall, and I've got a small 9V battery box that seems to have gone bad. The idea is to use a standard "wall wart" transformer to feed 9-12V DC into the small battery box. But, with all that lovely room (...) (21 years ago, 5-Oct-04, to lugnet.parts.mod, lugnet.robotics)
