Unusual, because it has higher voltage outputs, which is what I was looking for. I haven't been using it for long, but it seems to be working fine. Nice that it included multiple connectors.

This thing's huge. But it also does exactly what I need it to do—drive some 2.3-amp electronics I absolutely cannot find the adapter to, perfectly. And unlike all the other adapters I found online, I can trust that when this one is labeled UL listed, it actually IS UL listed.
I'd be just a little careful with it, though—when I go to unplug from the device, the tip tends to pull off the cord because the tip's grip is stronger than the pins. Just be careful where you grab.

It's great to hear that the adapter meets your needs and is UL listed, providing that extra assurance. However, I appreciate your cautionary note about the tip pulling off the cord—definitely something to be mindful of during use. If you have any other tech-related questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask! - Carl | Insignia Products

Works great. My orig cord I was using got water logged and this little device saved my event from disaster. I wish it were smaller and that the adapter plugs fit a bit more securely but overall a great option.

Hands down one of the best universal adaptors I have purchased. The amps are rated @ 3 but it has a wider range of DC voltage than most others. Although it will not power just anything, it is very versatile in what it will power. Check your amps and voltage on old unit. If they match up, I would highly recommend this one.

Works as advertised.
We were on vacation when I realized I had not packed a power cord for my wife’s medical device. Luckily there was a Best Buy near by and I was able to get her going.
The power cord had enough length to plug into the wall and her to sit comfortably in a recliner. It has multiple power outages so I was able to dial in for her specific equipment.
Overall we were very pleased with our purchase.

Great device, works to power on a number of different devices. I use this (and the previous version) to power on the Blackstar 3 amp miniamp. Much cheaper than the official one that you are stuck buying (bc the power supply doesn't come with the miniamp). But I tried this for other devices with random power imputs and they all worked! Love the different sized connectors!

The AC adapter for my day/date wall clock died one morming. I left a note for the vendor online. While watiing for a reply I decided to try Best Buy in person. They pointed me to the phone section and a sales person showed me this adapter. Great price and selectable voltage. I plugged it into the clock whick came on instantly and has been running ferfectly since. I recommend it and Best Buy. Great service.

Works great for a Steam Link

Voltage knob is a little scary, but it works great. Got it for my Steam Link and it worked amazing- I recommend putting a heavy duty piece of duct tape or something once you have it positioned so that it can't rotate; I wouldn't want to accidentally fry whatever is plugged in. Plug tips are a little less tight than I'd hope, but it works well enough to not be an issue.

This is a great adapter at a great price, but beware of the "universal" claim. This adapter does not include every plug type. If you know what you need before you buy, this is a great deal!

This was exactly what we needed to power our Keyboard instead of continuing to use and replace the batteries. It worked perfectly. We were able to set the correct voltage. (There were variable voltages to choose.) The device had variable amps for each voltage selected. Simple and easy—just find the proper voltage of your electronic device, set the voltage on the Adapter, and simply plug adapter into AC. All worked perfectly.

I urgently purchased this power adapter for my laptop, and it's been just working fine so far. I had to do a little of research if I could use this to charge my laptop, and it's been working for my laptop.
