    Looking to get a replacement psu for my mothers chair.
    It has dodgy connections and it's a sealed unit.
    I've mailed a few places poor response back

    It has the connection with one flat and one round pin similar to the ones you see on ikea psus

    Anyone any ideas who'd have them

    Fannin used to deal with similar models, maybe they can help.

    If the chair has SLA batteries, then its just a power for the charger. Some of these had a pair of PP3's as backup, with the psu doing all the work. That one looks more like the PSU type, but duty cycle at 2/18 mins gives plenty of room for a generic replacement. Must be sealed, or out of range of 'leakage'

    Google on the actuator manufacturer probably wont give you anything useful either..

    Note on this.

    I ended up breaking open this sealed unit and doing some soldering, replaced the terminal block with a porcelain one and rehoused it in a sealed junction box with compression glands going in and out of it. You can't buy them anymore and the traffo itself was fine it was just stress on the connections. The compression glands are a better job than the original.
