My kit came with a 12V 1.5A EIAJ-5 wall wart.  The mating jack (CN11)
is on the same side as the audio plugs and single USB port.    Plug it
in and go.

Center pin is positive and Wiki says it can take 10-24 V.

Sony and Pioneer use EIAJ plugs so look around at all your consumer
stuff and see if you have a wall wart that matches.
