Default FT-7800 power supply

I am thinking of getting a yaesu Ft-7800. What is a cheap power supply i could use. I see yaesu makes one for about 150. Is there a radioshack or other company that make one that would work?

this is a dumb question, What cable plugs the radio and the power supply together? Does it come with the cable? Do you think it will work better than the 150 dollar power supply that yaesu makes?
