The manual states that the KX3 power connector is 2.1mm. There are two standard sizes that have an inner diameter of 2.1mm. One is 5.0mm OD and one is 5.5mm OD. I believe that the supplied cable has an OD of 5.5mm, but just wanted to confirm. Both sizes will probably work, but the larger size will be retained better as long as it isn't too large. Can anyone confirm this before I make up my power cables?
BTW - Radio Shack's size letters are 'K' for the 5.0mm OD and 'M' for the 5.5mm OD.
