Thread: Adaptors help please...Im so confused!

Tweet

Good evening everyone,
Good lord...I am going to rip my hair out soon trying to figure out what kind of power supply I need to get. I want a wall wart. I called all my local stores not one has a power supply that could run a monster in a box. So I started searching the internet and found this one:
http://stores.nextag.com/store/47887...sal-AC-Adapter

So you think this one would work? I even called my second hand stores and they were clueless about even having any power supplies at all.
HELP...its getting closer and I really want my monster in a box to scare the tots!

You want a 12v power supply. Are you running a wiper motor for the MIAB

What are you using for a motor for your monster in a box?
If you are using a wiper motor, check out the power supplies at Monsterguts - http://monsterguts.com/index.php?act...d&productId=91
They're out of the 12V, 5 amp but do have the 5V, 5 amp ones in stock. You can at least check out the specs needed to run a wiper motor and then look for a 12V wall wart on Ebay if you need the faster speed.

Yeah its a wiper motor in the mib. The 12v is out on monster guts thats why Im looking to buy one seperate. But all the ones I am finding dont have the 5 amp output. Thats why I was not sure about this one with 2 amps. If you know where I can get one please give me the link so I can order the darned thing to get it here by halloween. And stop driving my poor hubby nuts lol!

Fright Props still has them - http://www.frightprops.com/electric-...rop-motor.html
or here's one from Ebay with a US seller with fast delivery - http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-12-Volt-...item53e620af61
I have ordered from over seas but getting it shipped in time would be tight for Halloween.

This is the same psu Halstaff linked, except from a reputable performance computer parts supplier. 12vdc 5a. http://www.svc.com/pa-ad-ul-12v5a.html

To bad that you didn't ask earlier this year (around May), as I had another performance computer parts business that was planning on closing their doors. Their final going out of business sale had them priced @ $4.99 per! I purchased 10 for $37, bulk discount ftw.

SVC also has the 2A version for $9.99 for anyone who's interested.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I wish I had been thinking about this in may! Im late into the game this year. But let me tell you it will be way different next year!!!!

No problem, and you're welcome Lol! Yeah, I start thinking about it the day after the Christmas decor gets completed. Doesn't make a huge difference, I still end up with many unfinished projects...

Lol...Raven I just read your siggy line. That is way too funny but true!
