Ok so I just realized something I did that others may not be doing when trying to order from Farnell in the U.S. I googled Farnell which the first hit took me to a country selection page where I selected U.S. which took me to Farnell Export

well I discovered that if I order straight from farnell and my order amount is over $20 I do not encounter the $20 fee. So if you need the part and have other items that you can get from farnell that total over $20 you do not get charged extra.

Well the device will draw the amount of current it needs. The rating on the wallwart is its MAX amount of current it can provide. Now some Wallwart that are overrated for the application may provide a higher voltage than they are rated for, however this is usually not the case in a switching regulated PSU that you would use for the y1. I am not sure about the economics…
