What is a "wall wart"? I'm sure you have a number of these things around; I sure do. These are those little (or not so little) black (but sometimes white) cubes with AC power connector blades on one face. You plug it into the wall and it converts the AC voltage to DC voltage at some specified current. Once you plug it into the AC outlet, it sits there like a black (or white) wart on your wall, thus the term of endearment, "wall wart." Typical wallwart includes an unregulated power supply as described above.

Suerte Aivars!
