Using Comer 1800 light with AC Adapter

Posted on 11/12/2009 11:39:00 AM

Get an inexpensive AC adapter to power the Comer 1800 light.

Thanks to Barry Werger at Ullanta MusicWorks barry@ullanta.com tried out the Radio Shack Enercell AC Adapter can be used to power the Comer 1800 light

Greetings! I took the 1800 to Radio Shack today and tried a few things... the cheapest that seemed to work well was:

Enercell 12VDC-1.5A AC-to-DC power adapter (273-358) with Adaptiplug 273-344 (5.5mm O.D. 2.1mm I.D.).


I had tried an adapter i had around the house, 12v-1A, but it didn't achieve full brightness of the light (compared to a battery). The combination from Radio Shack seems as far as i can tell to be as bright as the battery.

So: That's a readily available adapter for anyone looking for one!

Thanks Barry!

Posted by Jim Miesner on 5/10/2010 3:03:00 PM If the ac adapter is connected will the light charge the battery? Or would we have to buy a separate charger? Thanks.

Replied by LA Color Shop Jim, the AC adapter only used to power the light. It will not charge the battery. You can order a separate charger at
