My son has a Facebook Portal and his kids have mangled the barrel connector
that connects power to it. Does anyone know of a chart that gives part numbers
or anything similar for barrel connectors. We have determined that it is 5.5mm
O.D, and we have an unlabelled drill bit that just fits the inside hole, but
trying to find the right one to order is stumping me.
Please come back Radio shack.

Final result: I have a basic gauge on my crescent wrench, and judging by a
drill bit that fit snuggly, the result is O.D. 5.5mm, I.D. 2mm. and I notice in
the Wikipedia thing that Ralph suggested that the standard is I.D 2.1mm so that
could be it. I had thought in the past that the size was also related to the
voltage of the plug, but though there are some that mention voltages, many
don't.
Now to find one.
