Oh, you can find these on ebay, but that's too expensive to get a cheater cord.

The top has a glass panel with a resistive pattern printed on it.

I look for cords at the various thrifts and get lucky, once in a while.
The ones I have, has "Hotray" on the female connector. I make sure, I look at every store I visit.
