Power Cord for the GEB 1150?

Kadira · 03-10-2009, 02:53 PM

Hija.

Is there by chance someone here on this group who could offer me a power cord for the GEB 1150?

Or is here someon from Germany who already had luck with 'tinkering' something that works as power adaper together? Any information is welcome and loved dearly

If somebody has such device and likes to offer it for selling;I know that the postage will be high because of my wereabouts, but I am willing to pay for it.

Thanks in advance.

I believe people figured out what type of replacement cord could be used?

Looks good. I'll try to find a similar item here in Germany. Since I own no credit card, I can not order from most of the internet shops.

Thanks for the help.

Don't know if this will help but I just found out that the cord that came with my Kindle works for the eBookwise as well.

Eep, my apologies - it seemed to be working last night, but in the cold light of morning I discovered it wasn't.

Sorry for raising any false hopes.

It wouldn't help much anyway as the original poster lives in Europe. Besides the Kindle uses 5V to charge and the 1150 needs 12V. Do you think you car would operate on a 5V battery?

If you have trouble finding one, I have a spare.

Kadira,
I bought an EB1150 on eBay and of course, living in Italy, I could not use the charger that went with it. I went to an Electronics shop with the US charger and they gave me a n universal device that can charge until 1000mA on a voltage from 3 to 12V (there is a selector), with a set of different little plugs and changeable polarity ( I mean you can select the central pin to be "+" or "-". I paid 5€ for it. It's a Made in China device branded EDC.
