Slightly OT - Can anyone tell me what the power adapter for a newer Medela PISA says on it?

Ok title says it all...

Long story short, my pump was given to me by a friend but with no power cord. It's manufactored in 12/09 so it's fairly new. Anyway, it says not to exceed 9V but I don't know if I HAVE to get one from Medela.

I own an Ameda (purchased in 08) and the power adapter fits the Medela and also is a 9V. I just want to make sure I'm using the right type of power source...

Here is what my Ameda power adapter says on it:
Input: AC~120V 60Hz 20.2 W
Output DC 9V 1300mA

I really can't afford to buy a Medela power adapter... especially when this is sitting right here anyway!

Thanks!!

I got mine in November 2009, so this should be fairly recent. It says:

Input: 120VAC 60Hz 0.18A
Output: 9VDC 1.0A

OK, so you might know this already but I was curious so I asked my electrician husband and he said as long as it fits, based on the info from pp your Ameda power cord should work. A bit borderline apparently, but worst-case scenario? It might fry the power cord, but it shouldn't affect the pump. HTH!

(I'm a curious sort so had to ask when I saw it wasn't just comparing apples to apples... )
