| 266925 | 2004-08-30 05:35:00 | Hi there, Could someone please tell me whether there is some sort of wall charger that you can buy that will enable an MP3 player that is charged through a USB slot, to be charged by plugging it into a power socket. For example when going on holiday and not having access to a PC. The MP3 player is a Ceative Dgital LX100 player. Thanks in advance Jase |

That plus a regulated 5V wall brick, or an unregulated one and a 7805 and a couple of capacitors will do it. Just be careful with the polarity ... (I think 5V is pin 1 and gnd is pin 4). ;-) | Graham L (2) | ||
| 266927 | 2004-08-30 05:56:00 | To simplify packaging, a USB cable to suit (because there are lots of different NONSTANDARD X-( plugs on the device end) could be cut to make the connection. The red and black (unshielded) wires are the ones. | Graham L (2) | ||
