Where do you live? If your in the UK try argos, I got one of these the other week half price and works great.

Culturepunk...how is the connector on the half price argos adaptor?
I bought one from there a while ago for my F200 and the connection to the 2x is loose and i have to use blu-tack to keep it connected...

Which voltage do you use for the GP2X ? Is there any risk involved with using this ?

I use this power cord from Radio Shack.
It's a bit pricey but it works great.

3 or 3.3 volts, With a centre negative polarity.

That's the same one that I got and it works like a charm, with a nice snug fit.

Yeah I have have an F200 aswell, and well its not too bad on mine it is a little loose though, it will come out if I pull it with any force. Has been alright though, not needed blu tac. Only switched off on me a couple of times when its come out, usually when Im half asleep playing it in bed. ha ha.

The power adaptor i have for my F200 has a choice of positive tip polarity or negative tip polarity, it has no centre negative polarity.
I am confused which one of the two should i use?? andora2:

:excl: Make sure that it is set to 3V negative polarity (-) for the GP2X and 5V positive polarity (+) for the cradle. Otherwise you'll fry it! Expensive mistake! :excl:
