Yeah that would probably be the best bet, at least until I can find a power supply. They say your supposed to unplug the charger once the battery is 100% and let it drain down to about 40% and that leaving it 100% charged all the time isn't good for it. But it might be better than going through 1 or 2 charge cycles a day. Maybe I'm overthinking it a little on long term battery usage,

Darryl, I looked at a picture of the power supply on the Sweetwater site and it looks like it is rated for 1.5 amps. I know it says 1 amp on the back of the HDN, but it probably wouldn't hurt to go with a 1.5 amp. So I'll be on the lookout for a 12v 1.5 amp center positive power supply.

I didn't get a chance to contact Avid, but I'll try and remember post what I find out
