Ugh, I have some old radioshack ones and need extra plugs to change, never had luck with finding them.
On ebay they had some others but the sizes of the prongs to were very strange compared to what I have so you may check
what they are compared to what you have.

Or just buy a correct 4.5 positive center.

I know Targus and insignia will ship you replacement tips for free if you reach out to them. You can try emailing the manufacturer. You can also cut the cord and solder in the tip you need.

If that power supply has the 2 pin reversible type interface for different connectors then it isn't impossible to find extra connectors.
I think I have a bunch of random sizes in a small box here somewhere, various sources, but I do know you can still buy them (separately they might seem pricey but maybe you can buy a pack including different sizes).

Unknown, I did pickup some multi adapters months ago, they could change and had about 6 or 10 different plugs on the wire ends.
But they are a little funny, some of the voltage is not correct and you need an ohm meter to get it right.

Have an older one that is great, I think its a trisonic?
Mine is green but this is what it looks like.

So I got an open box Powerline adapter. I couldn't find the plugs by themselves so using one of the plugs and it works nicely. It's better than batteries for the clock.
