A couple days ago, I woke up and my lights weren't working. No power whatsoever. I took the set around my local stores and everyone just tried to get me to buy there 700 dollar Marineland lights I can get for 130 on Amazon. Well, that is until the last store I went to the owner was really helpful. (Check out Seascape in St. Louis). He took my power supply apart and swapped the fuse out with a circuit breaker to test it and it blew it. He sent an email to support and the email bounced. So neither one of us know where to get a power supply. The part that connects to the light I believe he said is like an old CB radio connection. It had two small holes and a groove in the round part that houses the two small holes. The light connection has two small round parts that insert into the plug.

Would anyone know where I can find a power supply so I can try to swap it out to see if it's the power supply thats malfunctioning before I go and buy new light?

Thanks for any responses!

Still seems to exist..BTW someties helpful isn't knowledgeable..
Was the fuse blown?
It isn't always equal substuting a circuit breaker for a fuse..

Plugs irrelivent really.. can change it to almost anything..
All you need to do is match the specs which "should" be on the orig. power supply.
Dead ps are pretty common.

Yeah, the fuse was blown. The problem I have, as seen in the link you for Zetlights products page, is that they dont offer the power supply that matches my older Zetlights model. The power supply I need has an end that looks like this.

Was able to do some digging and found this.

So its a 240v input. I googled 2 pin 240V and found this.

Am I wrong to assume that this power supply would work?

plugs can always be changed...Nothing up there will help deciding the ps..
Need output voltage.
100-240v ac is input
Anything written on the orig. power supply?

24v 12A or greater. AFAICT. Sould be a sticker on the light and power supply.
