This is the DC Power Jack:
The technical specifications for the jack is:
2.1mm inner diameter, 5.5mm outer diameter with Positive Tip
2.1mm inner diameter, 5.5mm outer diameter with Positive Tip
That's just the mechanical size of the plug in case you're looking to match
it up. It's an extremely common power plug size, so it isn't too hard to find a
matching power plug. Sometimes they're just referred to as "2.1mm DC
Plug"You can use a wall adapter like this:
You can use any adapter that is Center Positive and 7 to 12VDC output - we recommend 9V DC if possible. Check the following photo for the symbol that indicates Center Positive and for the 9V output text. The Arduino is fairly rugged and can survive plugging in the wrong adapter as long as the voltage isn't higher than 20V but it's 'stressful' to the 'duino and you should aim for 9V!
