Default DC 5m powercable for Promethean Activboard 50 64 78 and 95"

Anybody know where I can get a 5m DC powercable for Promethean Activboard (50 64 78 and 95")

Promethean are trying to rip us off for £30 (cable) + VAT and postage = £40

for a cable !!

The problem is if you use another adapter your void the warranty. It's not an unreasonable amount. About the same price for an adapter for a notebook.

If the cable isn't 5 metres long, you could just extend it using a power extension which can buy from anywhere!

Its not a PSU - just the DC cable that goes from the PSU to the IWB.
The connector that goes into the whiteboard is an odd connector with 15pins. not sure why it's so complicated. Are Promethean the only manufacturers of these?

I'll get a picture

what really takes the piss is that the board is covered by 3yr warranty - but cable is not
