That's ok, I use regular chargeable batteries, I dont intend to try to
charge them using this power supply :)

Ah, yes, I have used a 6V psu before, borrowed one from a small hub that
had exact same plug and got lucky, it worked fine :)
The psu I bought has wrong type of plug, but I bought a plug as well that
I will attach my self, just hope I get the polarity right :)
