These so called "DC Power plugs" (which are actually line sockets) are a
mess. There's no standardisation or anything. Look at this horrible lot:

There are different inner and outer diameters, and different shank
lengths.

A friend of mine who has diabetes, had an electronic foot massager, to
relieve his ailment. He lost the 5 volt DC wall wart down the back of
the sofa, but found another power supply which had "the same connector"
on the end. He couldn't get it to work, so I opened it. There was a hole
blown in the PIC chip. God knows what voltage he put up its jacksy.
