The XO power socket requires a plug 5.5mm outside diameter and 1.7mm inside diameter. Radio SHack doesn't have a plug in this size. I'm using the 5.5x2.1 plug with some success (takes a little wiggling to get it going), others have had success with a 4.7x1.7mm plug (Radio Shack Adaptaplug "C", cat no. 273-1706).
