So my boyfriend got me this Neurodreamer for my birthday. Yay! However, it has never worked. Apparently they did a substandard job soldering on the battery packs and fried a bunch of stuff into the realm of non-functionality on a lot of their models. They won't give us a new battery pack and they won't replace the item with one that would work with American outlets without needing an additional adapter. I want this thing to work and the company isn't being terribly helpful. However, they are opensource! The schematics are here:

I'd like to replace the pack with something, my noob brain tells me that I could just feed it coins, but it would probably gobble up vast quantities of coins and not really be worth it in the long run. Any ideas on replacement parts? As far as I know the charger probably works... maybe... if they didn't mess that up as well...
Hope to hear back before I e-tape a coin to a hole just to see what happens. This things smells weird..... BUT I MUST KNOW OF THE WONDER OF THE BLINKY LIGHTS!
