File:AC-Powered Nerf Vulcan

Description
This #tacticheap episode is all about how to power a Nerf Vulcan ECS-25 with a wall wart instead of buying batterie$ for it.

The 9V 4A Power Supply is from a VeriFone Omni 3730 credit card reader, which isn't something you're likely to stumble across at a local thrift store, but are easy enough to find on ebay. I got 3 of them for $15 tax (incl shipping), so shop around; it's old tech and the same brick is interchangeable with other VeriFone models.

This is a first-try proof-of-concept prototype, NOT a tutorial on doing robust wiring projects, so if you do this yourself, do a better wiring job than I did. =)
