[NTLK] Is model H2200 the only model of AC adapter

[Christoph Schröder]

Hi,

I have an US power adapter from an eMate or 2000 somewhere in a box. I am willing to give it away, when you pay the shipping from Germany.

Cheers Christoph

If you are an electrical engineer with the ability to build or otherwise have a very expensive power supply that is regulated, has protections, and never ever varies ONE BIT.  Then yes maybe.  But again it is NOT worth the risk.  We have seen MANY people over the years think they have a solution only to blow a newton a few days to months down the road.  So I repeat: it is NOT worth the risk.
