I am looking to buy a quantity of AC adapter PORTS. Not AC adapters, but surface mount ACadapter ports, very similar (but reverse pin polarity) to SEGA Genesis AC adapter ports.

I'm working on a fix to a common SNES AC port problem. If I can get the right AC ports, an alternate AC adapter will be able to work as a substitute for the repaired SNES AC port.

Anyone familair with the SNES connector plate will be aware that only a total port replacement can solve this issue.

Anyone have any idea what these may have for a technical description? I'm searching Digi-key, but without pics I feelI'm shooting in the dark here.

Any Ideas? Thanks in advance.

Yuck... surface mount sucks for power jacks. Too easy to bump 'em and rip 'em right off the board. You really want a thru-hole type PC board mount.
