    Title says it all. I found a lot of ten CF1653A M2s on fleabay but my currently dying/dead supply is a M3. I've got the 8 amp version for when I'm docked at the house but I need a couple of the 5 amp units so I'm not sharing one supply.

    Sorry Rob. CF-AA1653A is the 5amp supply that came with my CF-51. There appears to be a M3 and M3 version. Appearing as
    CF-AA1653A M2
    CF-AA1653A M3

    Probably was just CF-AA1653A originally with M2 and M3 being later versions but that's just a guess. The one I have in front of me ends in M3 but most of what I see on ebay is M2.

    There is a difference, but unfortunately I can't remember what it is at the moment.
