Hi - I just had another good look at the Canon powered battery adaptor and noticed that the -ve terminal seemed to be intermittent. So I cut the top of the adaptor using a fine hacksaw and my problem was revealed. The power socket -ve terminal had not been soldered to the lug (like the positive) but the lead just pushed through it. A bit of soldering and sticking the top back on with araldite has solved my problem. This stuff made in China may be cheap but you wonder about the quality control!
Cheers Peter
