Hey James,
I see several AC to AC wall warts at Jameco, but I could only find
24VAC or 36VAC. The 36V unit is just a transformer (#148559). Is there
any possibility of running the unit on 24VAC? Otherwise, you might try
hunting around at Mouser or Digi-Key.
Tim (and I'd definitely add that fuse) Servo
