Hello net, Questions: 1) I am looking for a source of 40watt power supplies to be used in 20MB, external hardisk units. 2) does anyone know how I can get in touch with "Skynet Electronics"? (the original maker of the power supply) My Tale of Woe: I purchased 6-8 Everex "Emac 20DL" units back in August of 1989. (i.e. warranty expired) Recently, 2 or 3 of these units have begun to "spin down" and then "spin up" at random intervals. (no problem iffn you aren't doing any disk access at the time ;-) I called Everex & they won't play "good samaritan" and allow me to purchase a replacement power supply. (they did offer to repair the unit at the going price :-( I can find 150watt power supplies, but these are too big to fit back into the case and this is SEVERE over-kill. The HD units are attached to Macintosh SE computers. Please e-mail your responses to me Thanks in advance Sherman -- +SNAIL: Sherman Ward / Freshman Engineering / Purdue University / + + Rm 221 Engineering Admin.
