The power supply for the 8825 base is to be 13 volts AC, rated at 850 milliamps or higher. You can go anywhere from 13 up to 15 volts without hurting the unit, and a higher current rating is even better. We actually make them ourselves through bulk purchases of varieties of power supplys. Your next delimma will be the plug size, it is a pretty common size, most universal adapters will have the right size of the outer and inner connections.

You need to register the handset to your base. Its easy, but first you need to clear the setting on the handset. Do this by pushing Menu, scroll to base system settings, push OK, then scroll to Base station 1, push OK, then scroll down to deregister, push OK twice, then press End. The handset should now say "please register", of which you can press OK, enter your pin or 0000 and the display should be flashing "registering base station 1". Now quickly, at your base push Menu, scroll forward to system settings, push select, enter your pin or 0000, then select. Push select again and the display should say "registering HS". Now, both displays (base and handset should say registering), keep your eyes on your handset display, once it "shakes hands" with the base it will prompt you to select an intercom number, you can just push OK.
