Hi: I have an 8 mm Sony camcorder, with 2-hour rechargeable 6.0 V battery pack, the charger of which also doubles as a plug-in power cord. Well, long story short, I lost the charger/power cord. Looked for it; couldn't find it. Called Sony to see how much a replacement would cost--$169! Holy boinkers. That's almost a third of what I paid for the camera. So, do you have any suggestions how I could replace this power supply/charger for less money? Any offbrand names that would work just as well? Would it be difficult to build one of these things? Any place I should advertise for second-hand replacements? Thanks for any info-- Ken --- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ken Zuroski Department of English Carnegie Mellon University Pittsburgh, PA 15213 USA kz08@cmu.edu ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
