Yeah I noticed that in the reviews, but thanks for pointing that out.

While it would be nice if Sony included the AC adapter with it, the lack of it isn't a deal breaker for me. My primary use for a SW would be as a source of news/weather/information in the woods or during a Katrina type situation, where AC power is either not available or had been disrupted.

Chances are if I have AC power available, I'm probably going to get all the information I need/want from the tv or online.

I do wish the Sony was a bit smaller/lighter though...

You can buy a 6-volt wall charger at Radio Shack for $12.00



I have a lot of these wall chargers around in various voltages. I find them at garage sales for $1.00 or .50 cents all the time.


Don’t let the lack of a cord stop you from buying a radio. If it has a power plug on it (be it whatever voltage) all you have to do is buy the right wall charger for it (be mindful of polarity.)
