Title: Size Of The Ac Adapter Tip
Post by: Snappy on December 12, 2007, 08:58:23 am

Hi all,

Any have any idea of the size of the AC adapter tip that the zaurus uses?

Is it 3.5mm? Thanks!

PS: I have the jack, but no clue where to measure ...

if you do use one of those universal adaptors be sure to check the polarity... then if the tip is removable and can be put on the wrong way round to reverse polarity, put some heavy-duty duct tape or something on it to stop any accidents!
