Doubt they can help as it says "This Product Is No Longer Available " so cannot open a box to look.
From that site
Specifications:

• Input voltage: 9.6V (or 12V external)

Isn't that the info you needed? Something like
Universal AC to DC Adjustable Multi Voltage Power Supply Adapter Charger UK Plug | eBay
See if it charges up on 9v first

For info the battery pack is made up of 8 AAA 1.2v batteries. I’ve just replaced them for a second time (last night actually) using standard Niamh batteries soldered and shrink wrapped. My unit is 20years old and if yours is of a good age it will need new batteries too.

if you give me an hour, I’ll measure the plug size in and out.

Ok, it is 15v output with a 3.5mm hollow plug. Unit number is TI-07.
