Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Sony AC-E45A is an appropriate AC adaptor for home or while traveling abroad. The slim profile makes it a nice accessory to pack away in a small bag or backpack. Sony has made this adaptor about one-third the weight of previous models, which will make the backpack tourists very happy. With the foldable AC plug blade, the adaptor becomes a straight-lined package, further enhancing its convenient storage capability. The adaptor is worldwide voltage capable. The low waiting-power consumption is a nice energy saving feature, while the large current capacity is a plus for its wide range of uses. With the 6.5 foot cord, reaching those ill-spaced outlets is made a bit easier. The AC-E45A has a rated output of 4.5V DC and a rated input of 100-240V AC.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not for use with radios, July 24, 2004
By The Boz (Illinois) - See all my reviews
I recently purchased this item along with a Sony ICF-M410V radio for which it is listed by Sony as an accessory. Don't buy this item for use with any radio, Sony or other, as it produces static at lower frequencies and a steady signal-obliterating loud hum at higher frequencies. When I called Sony about this, the person with whom I spoke indicated an awareness of the problem. The recommended adaptor is an AC-E45HG, but it is not available in the US! It is listed on the Sony Style Canada site, but they will not ship to the US. Catch 22 completed.

1.0 out of 5 stars Wrong application - not suited for use with radios!!!!, October 16, 2005
Even though this AC Power Adaptor was listed on the Amazon website as an accessory for a Sony portable transistor radio, the instructions with the radio and the Power Adaptor both clearly state that it is not suited for use with a radio, because it will cause the radio to HUM!!!! Sure enough it is totally unusable with a radio because of the HUM!!! The only AC Power Adaptor to be used with a Sony portable radio is a Sony Model AC-E45HG, which is unavailable through Amazon or anywhere else that I can find!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Caution, December 5, 2003
By A Customer
...although this may be approved by Sony for use with their radios, the front of package reads "Not recommended for AM radio" and the back of package says "Do not use this AC adaptor with a radio as it may cause some noises". ...
I tried it with my Sony ICF-M410V portable radio and learned that my favorite AM station (650 Khz) was accompanied by a significant high pitched whine which is not present when operating on batteries.
Perhaps all power supplies cause similar interference.
