Hi Paul
You may be able to get a Dick Smith/Jaycar equivalent. When I purchased my Minolta DiMage 7hi camera I purchased the mains adapter with it, for an extra $85.
When I got it home, it appeared to be the exact same unit (appearance, size, markings, electrical specification, polarity) as a Dick Smith 12V 1A regulated mains adapter I already had, for $29.00.
So, taking a guess here (i.e. proceed at your own risk!), providing the polarity is the same, the electrical properties such as the rated volts, current draw, regulated, etc are the same, if the physical interface is the same then maybe DS/Jaycar would have an equivalent?
But as always, with anything electrical, err of the side of caution and safety. Saving a few dollars is not worth it if the risks are electrocution, equipment damage, fire, etc.
Cheers
Dennis
