[Elecraft] Power supply for K1 / K2

I got a new Scanner for Christmas and no longer use the UMAX scanner.  Noted
that it had a small 12VDC switching power supply.  Checked out the voltage,
polarity, current rating, etc and decided it would work as a neat SMALL
portable P/S for the K1/K2 when on trips.  In researching the P/S found this
link and they are only $19.95 US.  They work on 90 to 265 VAC so they should
be good for overseas and probably available over there also.  NOT good for
charging the internal battery if you have one but would partially restore
and keep from discharging.  K2 is much lighter without it - unless you must
go portable. Here is a link.

(The above is a long link so you may need to paste it back together.)

Here is a link for the Specifications.

I have no interest in UMAX and am in no way affiliated with them.  Just
thought this was a good deal.
