A warning for anyone who has the Canon 350D 12v power adaptor from http://centralds.net/en/ : The unit does not have strain relief on the camera end of the converter box (the end going to the camera). It has some on the other end. I must have pulled mine a bit hard sometime and it snapped a solder join inside the converter box on the cable.

All fixed now, re-soldered.

And hopefully you tied a knot in the cable inside the cover so the knot pulls up to the exit hole before any strain is put on the solder joints?
