I have a dick smiths 240v to 12v DC 3A power supply that I use at home, and a portable car jumpstarted in the field.... both work fine, the only thing is, the dick smiths power supply sometimes electrifies the mount... Only happened once, but I haven't used it since... It was live enough for me to feel a warm tingle if i touched the mount or tripod legs..
I would go with a rechargable battery if I were you... If you must use mains power, make sure your power supply is good quality, able to be used outdoors and well regulated.
