basic hi-md questions - hi-md too good to be true?

1) how many mA is your adaptor rated?

2) What is the model name of your adaptor?

Happy Hopping,

I have US MZ-NH1.

1) INPUT: AC 120V 60Hz 7W

OUTPUT: DC 6V 800mA

2) MODEL NUMBER: AC-ES608K

All AC power adapter for MZ-NH1 have the same model #, AC-ES608K,

but different part #. The part # starts with 1-478.

1-478-393-11 (US/TW=maybe Taiwan? I can see 393-11 printed on US adapter)

1-478-394-11 (AEP/E18-middle east and 100-240V area in Europe)

1-478-395-11 (UK and Hong Kong)

1-478-396-11 (Korea 220V only)

1-478-397-11 (JE: Japanese Tourist Model 100-240V with US style prong)

I don't know Japanese domestic model. What number printed on yours?

You can buy 1-478-397-11 at SONY Direct Accessories

http://servicesales.sel.sony.com/web/index.jsp

or call 1-800-488-7669

It is $55.95 + shipping + tax.

Or you can buy 100-240V inpur 1000mA SONY adapter, AC-E60A, less than $20.

I don't know the plug working to MZ-NH1.

When you buy alternative adapter, make sure the same DC voltage and same mA or higher mA.

The one printed at my adaptor is AC-ES608K, and the bottom said 392-11. I guess your one said 393-11?

I really appreciate your reply.

I'll check into the AC-E60A, because I clearly bought the wrong one, my AC-E60HG only have 700mA.

As you said, I need one with 800mA or higher, so I'll either get the AC-E60A or the AC-ES608K, I'll see if I can get one locally for a cheap price, if not, I'll call Sony.

Thanks again

As you said, I need one with 800mA or higher

You MUST have the same voltage, 6V DC.

You MUST have the same current or higher, 800mA or higher than 800mA.

If you use 700mA, the power adapter may get broken if MZ-NH1 unit

draws more than 700mA.

That's what I thought, and for the money I paid for the NH1, I'm not going to save money on an adaptor. I'll order one from Sony store or Sony service tomorrow.
