Oh, I mostly know what I'm doing; I got a BS in EE and haven't forgotten all of it yet, LOL.

What I found is a 110Vac-in / 9Vdc-out power supply ( / transformer / wall wart) rated for 1.5A. I wired it into a Vulcan battery box and tried it... Nope, not even close to providing enough oomph to cycle the bolt. It just grunts a little at a time.

(My 5.8V 2000mA power supply worked great for the Disk Shot, though.)

Guess I'll keep an eye out for one of those big honkin' laptop power supplies that can handle 5+ amps... 9V is pretty uncommon for those, though. =(
