Sangean ADP-W2
The cleanest answer for a replacement is the Sangean ADP-W2, the OEM adapter. It is guaranteed to fit voltage, polarity, and connector. Buy this if you want absolute certainty and your radio still uses the standard Sangean barrel size.

Each pick, examined
Sangean ADP-W2
The cleanest answer for a replacement is the Sangean ADP-W2, the OEM adapter. It is guaranteed to fit voltage, polarity, and connector. Buy this if you want absolute certainty and your radio still uses the standard Sangean barrel size.
iMBAPrice 6V Barrel Adapter
The iMBAPrice 6V adapter is the aftermarket pick for Sangean WR-2, WR-11, and similar models that take 6V power. Verify your radio's voltage on the back label before ordering. It is half the price of the OEM and has worked for me on three different Sangean radios.
Anker PowerPort III
If your newer Sangean has a USB-C input, the Anker PowerPort III is a fast, reliable charger that works for the radio and your phone too. Skip this if you have an older barrel-connector Sangean.
Bestec EADP-12HB B
The Bestec EADP-12HB B is the right adapter for some older Sangean models that take 12V. Check your radio label first. The build quality is decent for the price and it has been reliable in my experience.
BESTEK Universal Adapter
For travel or a backup that handles multiple devices, the BESTEK Universal Adapter comes with multiple tips and adjustable voltage. Verify the polarity for your Sangean before plugging in, because reverse polarity can damage the radio.
Questions answered
Voltage must match exactly, polarity must match the radio, and amperage should meet or exceed the original. Check your radio's label before buying any replacement adapter.
Only if your Sangean has a USB input port. Most older models use a barrel connector. A USB-to-barrel cable plus the right voltage may work but verify polarity first.
