Ahahahahaha...

So, I saw this for a reasonable price on a certain 'marketplace' site. The seller told me his wife couldn't find the power cable and dropped the price, saying he had checked and I could buy my own compatible cable.
Due to various other projects, I haven't been able to get to this for about a month. I sourced a power adapter, but... the barrel plug wasn't the right size and wiggled far too much. Next, I sourced a larger barrel plug pigtail to use with my benchtop power supply.
Nope... too large...
"I know!" - I will take it apart to power the control board directly.
Hmmm - that's weird, there is no cable to the button panel...
Oh... wait... there are no electronics, motors or anything... This is a "display unit", likely stolen from a store... #lessonlearned
