So anyone know the part numbers for radio shack?

PLEASE NOTE for USA/ Canada customers a 110V / 12 V power adaptor is required ( Tandy /RadioShack etc easily procured locally, contact us for details )

I have the Aussie heated hose from sleepzone.com.au
Works great with my heated humidifier to completely prevent rainout. I've heard that some people still can get some condensation in the unheated connector tubes with some masks, but I've not had it happen with any of my masks yet.

The 12 volt 1 amp DC converter I use to plug it in is Radio Shack part# 273-1776 with an "M" adapter plug. The converter with "M" adapter is about $20 at Radio Shack.

There's a tiny plug on the end of the heated hose wire. Plug the heated hose into the tiny "M" adapter, plug the tiny "M" adapter into the tiny plug on the DC converter, and plug the converter into your wall electrical outlet just like you'd plug in a lamp. All the connections are simple steps involving plugs. No "loose wires" to be wired together at all.

You can also use this adapter which has an adjustable output to vary the heating level of the hose.

Thanks everyone. I picked up the adapter at RadioShack and placed my order for the heated hose last night. Now all I have to do is wait and I will start having "dry" nights
