Search Ebay see if he still sells them, Item worked fine.

Could find nothing on REMSTATOR and I'm not a big EBay fan

If you have any electronics capabilities, you can easily make one. All you need is:
1) a rectifier (or four diodes) $5
2) capacitor $2
3) resistor $0.50
4) a set of meter cables $7
About $15 total

A little soldering and it all works quite easily. To make it look pretty, you can put it on a breadboard and put it in a small box (both available wherever you got the components).

See the schematic for more details. Give credit to wavrider; he gave me the design.

I do have the odd electronic capability but as HT said, the schematic can't be enlarged so I don't know any of the values etc. But if that's all it is, it looks relatively simple. Can you please repost a bigger schematic? Thanks.

Sorry about the attachment. I changed it so you should be able to view it now.
