Switching Adapter Alternatives?

[urban_s0ulja]

hey guys
dont visit this section much, but im hoping you guys can lend me a hand.

I have a
DVE Switching Adapter
ModelSA-12W-05 FAU 05406
Input 100-240VAC 50/60 hz 0.3A
Output: +5.4V 1.2A - ---o --- +

Now this thing has gone bust, are they easy to open up and fix? If not could someone recomend me a alternative? Its for a Netcomm V85 VOIP Handset.

Thanks in advance

ps; ive tried jaycar/electus/dicksmith to no avale.

cheers

5.4V is an unusual value.

I'd say a 5V one would work just as good. 0.4 of a volt is neither here nor there in the great scheme of things.

Dunno what the staff are like at Jaycar in Oz, but here they are really only one step up from the staff that work at DS.

Usually just kids straight out of school who have little or no understanding of electronics and simply took the job coz it's all they could get.

No offence intended for anyone that works there - just that they're not technically minded in the most - otherwise if they were, they'd be working for a telecommunications company rather than selling electronic parts.
