Power Source/Portable Turntable

Post by Onar »

Hello guys,

I have a Portable Turntabler but have lost the power source.

Can anyone please advise on a suitable one ?.

It is Maplin Prosound Turntable.

Takes 5V DC

I checked with Maplin but they cannot help.

Please see photos.

Thank you.

It is 5 volt DC and 1 amp so well within most USB power supplies, also standard coax power plug and +/- clearly marked, can't really see a problem. Using tablet so not easy to hunt for you, but should be easy enough.

As said, what is your problem? 5v power supplies are available in the usual places. Just don't get one that has multi voltage (a lot of them out there too) Just depends how much you want to spend, I bet temu have them too.
Above are my opinions Below is my signature.

Would you hit a nail with a shoe because you don't have a hammer? of course not, then why work on anything electrical without a means of testing Click Here to buy a "tester" just because it works, does NOT mean it is safe.

Do get the polarity correct. Positive inner, negative outer.
