So i was playing last weekend and my warp worked fine, when I took the batteries out a wire that goes to the regulator (thats what I think it is, the black boxs of sorts...) broke off :mad: . Does anyone know were I can get another one of these regulators, the pin completely broke off so I can't simply reattach or solder it back on...

I was told that it was a 12v positive regulator such as a LM7812 or MC7812. You can get these at online distributors Digikey or Mouser. Radio Shack may have them as well. You want the TO220 package style.

Edit: I checked and DK has either the MC7812ACTGOS-ND, and any of the ones on this page:
http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?lang=en&site=US&KeyWords=lm7812&x=19&y=26

If I am not mistaken, the A just indicates a slightly tighter tolerance, but should work.
