Does anyone know where I can get hold of a 240v mains power lead for an AOR AR-2002 ?
AOR themselves are asking the earth for a couple of metres of
plastic so if anyone knows a cheaper alternative .... ?

strange thought but what type of connection ( plug ) is it ? ie like a kettle ( 3 pin plug ) or old cassette player lead ( 2 pin plug )
,if yes can you not adapt any of that type

yes - its a triangular 3 pin arrangement - kettle type - Have managed to lose the whole cable - so cant splice it or do a temp botch job lol
Beemer - will check your link-fingers crossed - AOR originally quoted me £30ish for a replacement, but judging by the 2002's age -for £30 I could probably get another 2002 and mains cable for that price from ebay - but the search goes on.
Thanks Mooneyncp for your input to - much appreciated.

It's not your regular 240v supply, the three Pin plug is square with max 12-14 v input. The cable has a power regulator on it, if you scroll down to Section 5 'Rear Control Panel' you can see what it looks like. www.rigpix.com/aor/aor_ar2002.htm (Click on User Manual .) Here is a photo of what the cable looks like without the Power Regulator. www.universal-radio.com/catalog/widerxvr/4560cord.htmlSpoke to Waters & Stanton on the phone and they said spares for the AR-2002 have been discontiued. |

klm, thanks for the link - think I will probably phone them on monday, if they dont hold them in stock they may be able to put one together for me.
speedbird - your quite right - the plug fitting is sqaure, and the pins are arranged in a triangular fashion , down to 12v dc.
The search continues !

Speedbird - that one looks about right I can sort out something to step down the mains voltage so this could be the one ! Didnt think that the dc 3000 might fit as well  many thanks for researching this for me - will let you know how I get on ! |
