I have a couple of likely items I am dropping off at the space just now.

1) A cheap and cheerful maplin "personal alarm" with "powerful 110db siren" new in package. Ripcord style keychain kinda thing.
2) polar heart rate monitor watch and 2 sender belts
3) Mind trainer game model XC5332BK a ps wannabe
4) Western Digital my book 1tb http://support.wdc.com/product/install.asp?groupid=106&lang=en
5) a couple of sodimm 8m x64 SDRAM and a.n. other

I'll leave them on the table above the 3week box.

You know, as per the rules, you're really suppose to ask if it's ok before bringing random stuff to the space...

Sorry for not asking first, I'll come back and bin'em if anybody says they'd rather I did. I also dropped off a small bolt cutter shears mounted now on the tool board right of the shop entry door.

And sorry the psu (12v from memory) is walkabout but the spec is on the link I posted above.

I promise to ask next time.

I know the drive was still there yesterday evening.

I'm happy to give more leeway on the basis that it isn't yet another router (people seem to drop a couple into the space on an almost weekly basis) and is mostly small interesting things.

One man's meat is another man's poison, hence the rule about asking. Not saying the items need or should be taken away but I don't think ignoring the rules should be justified in such a way. It just encourages others to bring in more clutter without asking all in the name of 'it could be useful'.

I yoinked the drive on my way out of the space last night, I was
astonished that it was still there at 10pm!

I couldn't find the PSU though, was it left with the drive?

Hi Jonty. 

No the adapter was lost in the midst of a house move.  12  Volt and 1.5 amp is the spec on the website given in the original post.

enjoy.

Next time I'll ask.

Matt
