I am surprised no one has mentioned getting a small bench power supply and a handfull of the power adapter plugs. I have two bench supplies that I consider invaluable in powering up new-to-me equipment. One of them as a dedicated 5V output among the adjustable outputs. The regulation is so much better than any wall wart. Another cheap alternative is to get a 5V regulated power block like a Lamda that comes out of surplus rack mounted computer gear, also well regulated. For these you would have to wire up the handfull of power tips yourself.
