I need to run my GK55 off of a 12VDC power bank.  It has a 5521 (5.5mm x 2.1mm) coaxial power connector on the battery side.  What is the size of the connector on the GK55?  It appears to have a 5.5mm external diameter, but the GK55 post is too large for the 2.1mm post hole.


Also, where can one get a manual for the GK55?  I have misplaced mine.  Thanks in advance!

For those who may be interested, the GK55 12VDC input is a 5.5mm x 2.5mm (5525) barrel connector.  I bought a 5521 to 5525 adapter on a lark and it fits.  So, that question is answered.  

I found my user guide.  I had forgotten how little information it actually contained in 17 languages, including Sanskrit and Old Hittite. Nothing in the manual about the size of the 12VDC power input should one ever have to buy a new power supply.
