Found a GF-7 in a skip. It was thrown out by a thrift shop. Looks to be in very good cosmetic condition. I want to see if I can get it working. Anyone have any idea what amperage the DC adapter should be if I can find one that fits? I'm thinking it might be 500mA. Don't want to risk blowing it up if this thing still works. :stormtrooper:

yea that will do it
and dont get the poles wrong
if you get a big buzzing sound when you turn it on the poles are wrong
play with batteries first

I notice your in Australia. Your DC adapter would probably work/be available in New Zealand. Do you mind me asking what your using?

Just buy a regulated power supply from anywhere. They will only supply as much current as the device requires.

Should only be around $15

I think I got mine from Jaycar or somewhere...

Pretty sure this is the original, powers the Sanyo minis as well.

btw welcome HAL_0, nice score on the GF-7 I would have grabbed it as well.

Lots of Aussies and Kiwis on the board, so if you need any help just ask.

Also post up some pics of the GF-7.

Thanks for the welcome. 2.0 is usually my thing. Found a fully functional Digitech AR1747 in the skip as well. :stormtrooper:

If you hadn't already guessed I'm a bit of a tightarse so I'm going to keep my costs to a minimum. I was hoping to find a comparable adapter from amongst the mountain in the local thrift shop. As to the photos I do have a digital camera but haven't a clue on how to get images transferred from there to here. Anyway glad to be on the site you guys seem a friendly bunch. :gathering:
