Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

I bought my PS at Radio Shack for about $15. To keep it secure in the CZ, I bent the center pin slightly. It works fine.

Make sure you have the correct polarity on the plug from the PS.

  I've had my CZ-101 since 1983. I lost the original power supply years 
  ago. There are a number of different sized power plugs available that 
  will fit into the CZ's power jack. I don't know exactly which size 
  was used on the original, so I've had to experiment with a few 
  different sizes to find one that will work. My findings are that some 
  of the sizes are 'close enough' to use, but can cause the center pin 
  on the keyboard to 'open' if wiggled the right way. My power LED 
  flashes when this happens. I have to be careful with the plug I'm 
  using as it will disengage if I'm not paying attention while moving 
  the keyboard around. Just a thought that might help here.
