So I plugged in my old Hughes and Kettner "Redbox". I used a 500ma adapter......it seems it needs a 200ma.
Embarassed

That would explain that smell....... Shocked

So I burned up this thingy here (at least it looks burnt). It says +22 +16v on it.

Can someone please tell me what that means so I can order one?


Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!! Very Happy

Sorry for the crappy pic

Having an adaptor with the same votage but more available current is not only NOT a problem, it's a plus.

Jeff, if you have a 60s or 70s stereo receiver laying around, I bet you will find one of these inside it if all else fail. I tried to Google what you posted and nothing concrete came up by the values. I'm thinking though that I have seen these in Les Paul's

It just looks like a tantalum capacitor, but you need the value. You may get the value from Hughes and Kettner tech support.

You know who would know exactly what it is? Hughes and Kettner... Have you called or emailed them? They would probably mail you one for free.
