-	The EA-72 is an ~~adaptor~~ that Sharp sells with these units in Japan. Some Zaurus importers sell these as "North America ~~Adaptors~~". They are rated for 100V. There have been concerns that these units are not safe to use in North America with where power is 110-120V. Some anecdotal reports suggest these may cause damage to the Z's charging circuits.	+	The EA-72 is an adapter that Sharp sells with these units in Japan.

-	However, some users in the forum have measured the voltage/current output, and found that it puts out a steady voltage/current that is ~~comprable~~ to what the EA-70s puts out. The EA-72 is apparently regulated, is fused, and seems to be within the tolerance of what the Z should be able to handle. An informal poll of forum users didn't turn up anyone who had problems with it. Right now, the weight of the evidence seems to suggest that they are safe to use in North America.	+	However, some users in the forum have measured the voltage/current output, and found that it puts out a steady voltage/current that is comparable to what the EA-70s puts out.

		+	If you look in eBay for the seller 'mrbuybits' ask him for the Car Cigarette Adapter that fits the Acer N35 Computer,
		+	these will work perfectly on the SL-C1000. The input to these adapters is: 5.42 Volts DC, I've had my SL-C1000 attached
		+	to these for days on end and no damage to the Z's charge circuit. You just have to cut off the fitting for the N35 and
		+	solder a 1.5mm power plug there on the end of that cable (the same as the type that fits the Z: + is centre, - is outer sleeve)
		+	The input to these is 12v DC. This can be any 12v DC source including mains adapters. Have Fun! added by Allelectrix
