so i just moved in to pennsylvania where i'll be living for the next eighteen months and going to school at uti.
a friend of mine gave me a sweet comfortable chair with a little remote to control the lumbar and the heat and the massage thing and all that jazz. the problem is that it's missing the piece that goes from the power wire to the receptacle. the picture you see if of the end piece comming off the chair. would i be able to get this part in radioshack or even online or anything?
help a brotha out
thanks.

You could make a head gasket out of a piece of cheesecloth, but not tackle this? - kidding, kidding... :icon_razz

If nothing else, some 2 conductor wire and some electrical tape would be a quick and effective jury-rig on somethink like this, especially if you can't find a connector.

so that plug in the picture, thats coming out of the chair? and you lost the part that plugs into the wall (that the chair then plugs into)?


What you need to know is what the voltage and amperage is that the chair needs. Then you gotta find a place that sells an inverter that has a female connection on it...

Or you could just look up the manufacturer of that chair online, and order a new inverter from them
