Hi Ron,
with my eq5, I did away with the D battery holder and bought a 4xAA battery holder and some NiMH (2000ma) from Dicksmith. That way you can give them a quick charge and away you go..done some 4-5 hr runs with no problems.
Stay away from those piggyback unregulated power supplies as they could fry your electronics.. you might be able to pick up a regulated 6 volt transfomer as long as it can handle the full load..something like 1 amp transformer should handle it? but I am not sure of the current draw for this?
Cheers Gary
