3 VDC 500mA AC Adapter

The other poster is correct, it's output is not 3 volts. Without any load it outputs around 6 volts. Maybe it outputs 3 volts at 500ma but I would have thought this would be a general, i.e. regulated, power supply.

I needed this charger as a battery replacement. Given that it's advertised as 3 volts, it seemed perfect to replace a couple AA batteries. I ordered two of the chargers and upon arrival threw them on my voltmeter to verify their performance. One was 6.1 volts, the other 5.8 volts. Pretty much double the represented voltage. Now I need to either wire up some resistors or keep looking...ugh.

I have bought several of these adapters and they really do a super Job. It has reduce my expensive battery load .we all know how much batteries cost and It helps reduce the effects on the enviroment. I am delighted to have found these adapters I had to goggle to find this website and I rally love there products
