Hello All,
I'm new to the forum and I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I just picked up a Bauer 3T projector and it's missing the power cord. Does anyone know where I could find one? I checked ebay and someone has an entire projector for sale (for parts only), but I don't really want to pay that much for just a cord. Thanks

Take it to Radio Shack, depending on the unit's outlet, they may be able to order a power cord for you.

Thanks Thomas,
That was my first thought, too. Unfortunately, they were unable to help. I'm hoping someone on the forum has a non-working T3 lying around and would be willing to sell me the cord. Finding one has proven much more difficult than I anticipated.

Another thought, take the projector to a thrift store , you might find an old appliance (like a toaster) that uses the same power cord (identical outlet)...puchasing a $5. appliance would then be worth the value of just getting the power cord.
If there is a specialty electronics /repair store in your area , they might be able to make one custom order for you, although this would cost something.
