Item Description:
The compact, lightweight Sony AC-E45A 110/220 Volt AC Power Adapter provides steady, reliable power for virtually any electronic device requiring 4.5 Volts DC

Amazon.com Item Description:
The Sony AC-E45A is an appropriate AC adaptor for home or while traveling abroad. The slim profile makes it a nice accessory to pack away in a small bag or backpack. Sony has made this adaptor about one-third the weight of previous models, which will make the backpack tourists very happy. With the foldable AC plug blade, the adaptor becomes a straight-lined package, further enhancing its convenient storage capability. The adaptor is worldwide voltage capable. The low waiting-power consumption is a nice energy saving feature, while the large current capacity is a plus for its wide range of uses. With the 6.5 foot cord, reaching those ill-spaced outlets is made a bit easier. The AC-E45A has a rated output of 4.5V DC and a rated input of 100-240V AC.

Rating: - * Noisy on am ... This adapter was noisy on am stations when used with the sony radio. Found a generic at Radio Shack , however, that worked just fine and was quiet for about the same price. Rating: - * Great, but some static interference ... Product does everything it says. It does tend to have a little more static interference than just using it on battery power, but not all the time and not enough to make it annoying. Rating: - * Alternative models for the Sony radio ... After reading these reviews I decided to try a different adaptor for the Sony radio I purchased from Amazon. The first one I purchased from RadioShack produced the same type of interference as was reported by several people here. I returned that one and purchased a different model which works fine with the Sony radio and produces no interference. The model that works is RadioShack 273-1765. It is a 4.5 V - 700 mA AC-to-DC Adapter. This model costs $ 22.99. Rating: - * Do Not Buy for AM Radio ... Had same problem as others with this power supply as it imparts loud interference due to being a switching supply. It will not work with AM radios yet this is the accessory that Amazon lists for the Sony ICF-M410V portable radio. It even states this on the package but not in the ads. Rating: - * Not compatible ... The Sony AC-E45A AC Power Adaptor is presented as being compatible with the Sony ICF-M410V portable radio. The web site advertisment encourages you to buy the adaptor if you buy the radio by offering a package. Reality is that the adaptor causes the radio to have unacceptable noise and static. What is worse is that the notes on the reverse side of the Sony AC-E45A power adaptor carton say, "Do not use this adaptor with a radio as it may cause some noises." Obviously, had I been aware of the notes on the backside of the carton, I would not have purchased the adaptor and probably not the radio as well.
