(...) Thanks Ralph, that's very helpful! I'll go get one ASAP. Seems like everything we got this year takes batteries so it'd be nice to get something running on power :-) Cheers, Heather -- Heather Patey St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada Pirate (...)

(...) Great! It's just like a Mindstorms jack. There is also a "~" symbol next to the 9-12V marking, which means you can supply any polarity you like. They do, after all, have to make it kid-proof! I'd recommend RadioShack 273-1656A. It's a 9V 800mA (...) (25 years ago, 28-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.general)

(...) Thanks Ralph. I took pictures of the jack and the adapter and posted them at the end of the picture set: (URL) jack says "9-12V" next to it. The plug for the adapter looks like any ordinary adapter. The adapter says on it: PRI: 230V - 50 Hz (...) (25 years ago, 28-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.general)

(...) Heather, As far as I know, the transformer has a plug on the end, so you should be able to go to any RadioShack and get a 9V-800mA(or so) adapter. Just be sure to check polarity. Are there any symbols near the jack on the Command Center (...) (25 years ago, 28-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.general)

(...) Glad you enjoyed them! (...) My set crossed the ocean too, so my adapter is no good either. I used the batteries, although I think they're only going to last another few play sessions. (The jaw/arms movement seems to take the most power, by (...) (25 years ago, 28-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.general)

Here's something I've noticed, for Slizers only in America TLG has dumbed down the names. Roboriders being the notable exception. TLG dumbed down the Slizer story the whole group name and even the names of each robot. After looking at Bionicle and (...) (25 years ago, 28-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)

The sets dont need to be current... the part I am talking about is a "modular" connector. It has 2 pegholes on the "top", and then a set of 2 pegholes on both sides folowed by 2 more sets of pegholes on the other 2 sides. The ones on top and 2 of (...) (25 years ago, 28-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)
