Having used an Freesat SD for a while I've bought a HDR 1010s. I know it has the hard drive issue and I'll check on the forum to see what can be done, but it arrived without a power supply. I've bought a 12v 4amp power supply but the connector does not fit. I presume the standard size is 2.5mm x 5.5mm but it appears the Humax is 3mm (or so) x 5.5mm. Does anyone know the exact size so I don't waste money on a second incompatible supply. Thanks!

I came across this post while I was researching dc power supply plugs to fit my FVP-4000T.
If you need an adapter to fit a power supply with standard 2.1mm x 5.5mm barrel jack, this one should fit:-

If you can solder on a plug (it's fiddly) this one worked for me:-
The plug is referenced Lumberg 1636-04 and the size is 5.5mm x 3.3mm with 1mm centre pin, it can be found on Ebay as well as Farnell and RS online. Be sure to match the power requirements of your Humax to the power supply; all the Humax boxes I've seen run on 12 volts, my FVP-4000T needs 2.5 amps min. whereas an HDR-1100S needs 4 amps.
