I have a Caiman II on the way and ordered the Anker Gen2 battery. does anyone know if the included DC cable will work?

I see no specs of the included cable or size of the jacks on either device.

should I order something like this to be safe?:

battery:

Also, if i ever wanted to try a regular wall power supply what would work the best? I'll need something that works 110v-220v.

Thanks for any help!

Hi Tim,

One of the leads supplied with my Anker battery fitted my Caiman II just fine. I did not need to buy anything else.

As to the wallwart, I understand that the one that Stan supplies as standard is as good as you are going to get without going to a much more expensive linear PSU.

I have not tried any of these alternative PSU's, so can't advise you on which ones work - but there are plenty of people on this board who have.
