The RS kind come with one free "adaptaplug" tip, and I believe the one you need is the "H" tip. I recommend you get one that is simply 9v, or if you do get one with a switchable output, make sure it is recessed so no accidental changes. You can also take the suggestion that others have made and glue the tip on to the plug, so that doesn't get accidentally reversed.
