Uniross Main Adaptor: Polarity

[GA01]

After many "happy" hours playing on my new GP32, the batteries have finally died . Oh well, at least I have an adapter. The problem is, I'm not sure which end I need to connect to the adaptor. I ordered the adapter from GBAX with my GP32 but I'm not sure if the + or - should line up with TIP on the adapter. Please advise.

Don't use it until someone posts the right polarity. It WILL fry your GP with the wrong polarity.

BUY RECHARGABLE... MUCH SAFER!

Not at 3 volts.

I did that very same thing, with the very same adapter, and it didn't fry my GP32 at all - The light on the plug went out until I turned the GP32 off, reversed the polarity and it works perfectly fine. ^_^

The Negative polarity goes next to the (TIP) mark.

Also, on some GP32's the adaptor can be a very light fit, sometimes its worth removing that little plastic lip on the adaptor so it can go in further, a pair of sissors will cut through the rubber.

Thanks guys

Just got back from shopping and got myself a 1 hour charger with 8 x 2100 mAh rechargable batteries (should keep me going for a while ). Now playing with the adaptor while the batteries charge (Thanks Twinbee ). Actually, the fitting fits perfect on this GP32 BLU.
