Hi,

I am looking for the EXACT specification for Lego's wall-wart for the
RCX.  What is its exact power ratings etc. etc?  So, if anyone  has the
Lego wall-wart, can you read the specs out for me.

Mine is a 230 VC AC to 10V AC adapter, output 7VA.

  I have a lego wall-wart, I get it in a 8485 (control center II) set.
Their specs are: 230AC to 7~10AC 50Hz, but in my country the power is
110VAC 60Hz. I call the lego and they told me that it should work with the
technic control center, but the wall-wart don't work with it.
  Could I use a 110VAC/9VDC wall-wart with technic control center and
RCX?

thanks,

zanette.
