Sidewinder Wheel AC adapter specs?

[Slickone]

I've got a Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback wheel (black and grey) but am missing the AC adapter. Can someone tell me the V,A, and polarity for the AC adapter? I probably have one lying around. No comments on the wheel, please. I know they aren't great.

DC 12 Volts, 1.3Amps, Positive in the middle(the bit that goes into the wheel).

Microsoft Part No. 96746
12VDC 1.3A 28W
Tip positive polarity
outer diam 5.5mm
inner diam 3.3mm
center pin diam 0.95mm

As it turns out, there is a suitable replacement available at RadioShack.
It can be had here (and probably many other places as well)
Important is sizes on plug, polarity and voltage

Thanks guys. Not sure I have one with that high of an amperage.

Would a 12V AC out adapter fry it?

 

[bruceb]

Yes it would. Your device requires 12VDC not AC ... see my prior post for
the Microsoft Part # and also a link on where to buy it. You can get it at
Radio Shack as well, just need to match the correct plugs specs, also listed above.

Only AC adapter I know of with AC output is an original Nintendo Entertainment System (internally rectified to DC), but that was 9v, IIRC.

I have several different ones with AC out. Unfortunately the only ones I have with 1A or more are AC out, and I don't want to spend the money buying one for this wheel.
