Since this is still available, I'm lowering the price to $150 which will
include the shipping to anywhere in the U.S.
Very smooth operating key, easy adjustments and it looks almost new.

Bob,
The non-contact pen types do exactly what you want. The top of the pen is a flat tip that you can insert in to the hot side of the outlet (the short one). They usually have a flashing red light

Re: 12 Volt linear (not switching!) wall wart
Hey Chip,
Bad news.. they don't test out.. I have three 13.8v 1a .. but they make noise now.. sounds like the insulation on the transformers.. or possible caps issue.. they are sealed.. of course.

Looks like these are not regulated, so the Jameco option is probably best.

I have a few 18 volt transformers, 3 at 5 amps and 2 at 2.5 amps, these would make a great supply.
