> Anyone know anything about plug in power supply AC adapters? My cat chewed up one that's attached to the TV antenna. I have another one here to substitute for it but I think it's more powerful. The original one has input of 120V 60Hz and 8W while the other one I have is 120V 60Hz and 23W. Would the latter one work ok (and just be overkill) or would it be dangerous to use it for some reason? I didn't compare the DC output on either of them. Is that a concern as well?

The output voltage is the absolutely most important detail. That, and the plug shape. The extra wattage just means the potential replacement has a higher capacity.
