We got this from a large lot of used parts we bought.

Looking for lego 86718 appears to say that it's a 45541, since 86718 appears
to be set 9833-2 but the one we have here says 120VAC / 10VAC and 45541 says
it's 10.8VAC.

Do we have a weird, not-yet-listed item here or just can't find it in the
catalog?

Any help would be appreciated.

It's squared like the 45541 but yeah, the output voltage looks different.

I'm not sure this is exactly the answer you're looking for - the part
number and picture could be added as alternate items #s

That 0.8 volts falls into the 'it doesn't matter' category - because
the NXT battery (like the 9v train controllers) have "~9-12v" molded
into the plastic. Just about any transformer/adapter in that range is acceptable.

No doubt LEGO leveraged their purchasing power and purchased the best price item
at the time.

Thanks.

I just wanted to make sure that the 0.8v difference wasn't an issue, I wanted
to make sure that a buyer who got this wouldn't contact us and say that we
sent the wrong item.

I'm obviously not super knowledgeable on electronics/electrics and wanted
to ensure that this was appropriate to list under the item code I had.
