Why not just fit a 13A socket from the existing power supply, plug
your wallwart into that and be done with it?
Well done that man! I'd assumed that having a 13A socket on the lighting
circuit was against some regulation (that I hadn't found) and failed to
engage brain. Thanks! Brain now engaged and I will stop thinking about
it (but I *will* add a label to the socket, for the benefit of whoever
is here next).
Having 13A socket on a lighting circuit is fine as long as it is not
going to be mistaken for a general purpose socket. An additional label
on the socket also helps.
I doubt that anyone is going to climb up and use your doorbell socket to
plug a toaster in:-)
