Default RAC Portable Power Station, need DC adaptor spec

Adrian C has brought this to us :
Thanks for checking.

Something unregulated rated at anything past 12V rated at an amp or more
might just fit the task, and be easier to find in the junk pile than
something unregulated and small with specifically 16V stamped on it.


12v or even 13.5v will not put a charge into a 12v lead acid battery,
it needs to be in the range 13.8 to 14.2v
