Just got myself a 5101e (flashed with Infinity). Can someone tell me if I should be using a power connector that has the center tip positive or negative? I don't wanna blow this thing up! Thanks in advance guys.

(What it says next to the power input is +12 VDC, if that helps)

Center tip negative = burning smell

Center tip positive = go go go!
