I like my 1.0 RCX because of the power jack. I typically use the RCX to
automate train layouts and buildings. I like to leave it on, animating the
scene for a long period of time. The power cable keeps the batteries from
running out.
You can get a power converter for it at Radio Shack. It seems to be a
standard 9V jack.
