The power inserter puts out 21v and 1.2 A max.

The power brick for most newer receivers is 25v and 2.86 A.

Wanted to make sure you got the right information as there are several models out there.

And be cautious, it is DirecTV, not Direct TV. Just so you don't get caught by any scam sites out there.
