Hi!
I bought my RC5000 from US and got the power adapter replaced with a 230V universal adapter with reversible connector. However, I have managed to rip loose the connector.
Anyone who can supply me with information about which polarity for center ofconnector on the power adapter?
Thanks.

Thank you! I have been running my poor remote on dry cells for quite some time now until I found this forum.
When I connected the ack-pack, it was down to 0.24V, so my RC5000 refused to charge it.
I connected the battery to a laboratory power supply set to 6V, 0.2A and charged it for about 5 minutes until the power supply switched from current regulation to voltage regulation. After that, the RC5000 both booted up and started charging the battery. Hopefully the battery hasn't suffered too much from long abuse.
Anyway, thanks again. I didn't dare just try a 50/50 gamble on polarity.
