I know it’s the old round pin we used for phones back in the day but can someone send me a link to the exact one because I’m seeing too many round pin charges of different sizes. Also where do I go for tech help related questions like these? Is this the right community?

    Remember to check the polarity of the plug too. Some have + in the center pin, others have -

      I’d never heard of this before, but without industry standardization I can see it happening.

      I didn’t realize Satan designed electronics.

        Yeah. That’s what I’m worried about. I think I might have to contact the seller I bought the lamp from on Amazon and see how it goes. Otherwise I’ll take the lamp to the electronic store near me and try the pins one by one.

          Luckily there are only as many different barrel plugs as there are imperial units. /s

          Good luck ;-)
