An extra 6 volts or so will not unusually distress a typical 10 or 115 volt series set. You can probably replace a 35XXX with a 50XXX output or a 35XXX with 50XXX rectifier if pinout is same to lighten the load. Buckeroos are old school iron 12 volt or whatever you can scrounge or fit. Agree, up to date wall warts are probably not what the doctor ordered.
