Hi Andy,
Bird Electronic Corp: http://www.bird-electronic.com/
might have the info you seek.  However, I've read that
their PEP adapters are current hogs -- they flatten
the two 9V batteries (no external power provision) in
around 24 hours use.
On the other hand, LNA Technologies
(http://www.lnatechnology.com/) produces units that
use a single battery and are will operate much longer.
 They have versions to fit Bird wattmeters, and they
produce generic units.
