Product Overview

The Astro Devices Universal Power Adapter supplies mains power to a Nexus DSC, Nexus DSC Pro, or Nexus-II from a standard wall socket, wherever you happen to be observing. It pairs a 5 V 12 W AC/DC wall-mount supply from XP Power with five interchangeable plug tips, so a single adapter travels with you across regions without extra converters.

Who It's For

This adapter fits owners of the Nexus DSC, Nexus DSC Pro, and Nexus-II who want a dependable indoor or powered-site supply for charging and running the unit. It suits home use, travel, and any location where a wall socket is available.

Key Features & Design

  • Five interchangeable plugs: AU, EU, UK, US, and CN tips clip onto the same adapter body for use across most parts of the world.
  • Regulated 5 V output: the XP Power supply delivers 5 V at up to 12 W through a multi-blade input.
  • Direct Nexus compatibility: powers and charges the Nexus DSC, Nexus DSC Pro, and Nexus-II.
  • Compact and portable: at 200 g with swappable tips, it packs easily into an accessory case.

How It Works

The wall-mount body accepts a multi-blade input and outputs a regulated 5 V at 12 W, matching the requirement of the Nexus units. Each regional plug slides onto the front of the adapter and locks in place, converting the supply to the local socket format before it goes into the wall.

Recommended Uses

  • Charging a Nexus DSC, Nexus DSC Pro, or Nexus-II at home between sessions.
  • Running a unit from mains power at a powered observing site or observatory.
  • Traveling internationally with a single adapter and the matching plug tip.

Compatibility and Accessory Notes

Compatible with the Nexus DSC, Nexus DSC Pro, and Nexus-II. The package includes the 5 V 12 W AC/DC wall-mount adapter plus AU, EU, UK, US, and CN plug tips. The supply is manufactured by XP Power.
