Hey guys im not the best with electronics to be sure not to make something my self. I made a little short wave radio when I was younger so I understand a little and know how to solder things together. I want to hook my Desert fox up at my house to just plug into the wall. Them make a 40$ adapter which i think is to expensive. If any of you can look at this and give me a cheap easy solution to build or use something else with out blowing the thing up. here is the expensive adapter they sell http://www.blackcatmining.com/mining-equip...wer-adapter.cfm And I can not find another one like it besides maybe a lap top charger if thats all I need to use I would like to know what to look for if all I need to worry about is the 3.33 amps or some type of conversion please help. Thank You guys and thank you Bill for the Desert Fox.

Hi Miles,
If you currently own an automotive battery charger, you should be able to use it for this purpose. It should convert the power for your Fox no problem. -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER!
