Powering options for Tascam HD-P2

Just wondering what the available options are to powering the Tascam HD-P2.

I'm currently using regular AA batteries but would like to use something else & was wondering if anyone here has used this device with a different power source?

If you could reply with some options, cost & supplier that would be appreciated.

Thanks
 
I use AB batteries - just made a quick dtap to 2.5mm (I think - check that) plug. Any 12v source should power it great. My 90wh batteries let it run FOREVER. Going to buy it a 65 so I can use my 90's elsewhere.

Just be careful with that 2.5mm plug - easily pulls out although have never had be an issue when recording, just when rearranging cables it falls out. I keep a set of AA's loaded just in case.
 
Thanks Jeff,

I'm not really good at modifying adapters. I thought there was like a battery that just went in to replace the battery sled that holds the double AA batteries?

So from what your saying, it looks like I'll be needing a battery that is somehow connected to an adapter that conects to the AC power jack?

How much & where should I start looking for this?


Thanks

Steve
