9 car dvd player

there are 12.volt in-car chargers that states for portable dvd's, but my dvd states on it's battery pack and on the back that it is DC IN 9 VOLT?? so does this mean i can't buy the portable in-car chargers that are 12 volts? will i blow it up?? or what?

if its battery powered and the rating plate says its 9 volt then only connect it up to a 9 volt supply. It may work with a 12v supply (after all its not that over voltage.. but the problem is that car electrics are nominally 12v, but often run higher (around 14volt to charge batteries, and drop below 12 volt if the battery is low on power (discharged or you are using a lot of current eg trying to start the engine)

however voltage isnt the olny issue.. you alos need to make sure that the current is appropriate for the device... check the rating plate for the DVD player it should clearly say what power input and what curent it needs. Current is usually expressed as xah or xMa... eg 1500Ma..... which means 1500 milli amp hours (or 1.5 amp hours). given that you say the player is currently battery powered (im guessing then it must use PP9 batteries so it can't draw that much current

however all is not lost, you can buy leads that plug into a car accessory socket and they include a bit of electronics that converts the incoming power to what you want... try maplin. I have one from Maplin.. a Uniross "UNI15/M". which will provide regualted power for a range of power outputs. I think it cost about £10

This demo video is compatible for the following models: 1. W2-D9230V for Volkswagen Passat B5/Bora/Polo/Gulf 4 www.witson.com 2. W2-D9105T for ...

It's a CARS TV/DVD player, 9 weeks out of guarantee. It keeps switching off. I think it's a safety device because something's overheating. It cost £130.00 and my grandson really loves it.

Can anyone tell me whether it would be economical to have it repaired please?

A typical television repair will START at £50 if it's a simple fault. Don't give up - read on......

If it is only nine weeks out of guarantee then you may still rights to a free (or at least part-funded) repair under the Sale of Goods Act.

This clearly states that good must be of Merchantable Quality and Fit For Purpose.

In practice this means that the courts will hold that a television set should last more than 1 year even if it was "only" £130.

You must go back to where you bought it, with proof of purchase (receipt or credit card slip/statement or whatever) and demand your rights under the Act. It's amazing how quickly shop managers back down when you confront them with the Act.

Also, some shops will try to make you contact the manufacturer directly. That is not the case in law. Your contract of sale was with the dealer not the maker. Therefore the shop cannot abrogate their responsibility. They can be very heavily fined if they try.

Follow the Link below and print out a copy of the guidance notes on the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982. Take it with you to the shop.
You should make a point of memorising the FAQ numbers 8 and 9 and quoting it them.

Further advice will be available from your local Citizens Advice Bureau (check Yellow Pages) if you need it.

You have consumer rights enshirned in Law and it makes my blood boil when shops try to fob you off. They rely on customers shrugging their shoulders and walking off. Don't let them get away with selling you boxes that fail as soon as the guarantee expires.
You must be prepared to stand up the management and not cave in. You should get a satisfactory resolution on the spot.

That is, don't let them fob you off with "the manager's not here, come back next week". It will be whoever is in charge of the shop at the time of your visit that has to deal with you.
It may help if you take your grandchild (and his friends) with you when you complain. Make sure that have lots of stick sweets and chokkies (honest. shopkeepers hate noisy kids and will be more inclined to deal with you instead of keeping you waiting).

Any small claims court will hold that a television should last at least 5 years.

Experience:
Lots, but the most recent was I bought a dud item from Marks and Spencer (yes, really!) and waved my copy of the act in front of them and got my money back. This is your rights as a consumer.

Where can I find a wall adapter to charge it? Is the V the same?

Radio Shack is a good place to look for DC power supplies. A 9.5v supply would be best but if that is not available then a 9v one will probably work just fine.

Bring the DVD player to the store and make sure that the connector on the wall power supply fits the connector on the player. Also, note that the connector has an inside and an outside lead. Be sure to check that the polarity (whether + is on the inside or outside lead) of the DVD player and the power supply connector match. This should be marked on the DVD player near the power connector and on the main part of the wall power supply. Do not connect the wrong polarity because it might damage the DVD player.
