So I got my EHX Small Clone some time back. First it worked like a charm, except..

This just happened to my RAT, and I sent it back. They gave me new one for free. And a t-shirt.

Has it ever worked with that adaptor, or is the adaptor new, etc?
EHX has a 1-year warranty I think, if it is broken.

Anybody have a idea what the polarity on these is? No help from EHX user manual. And whether it is a AC or DC since it says one thing on the site, and the other on the manual.

It will be 9V DC definitely, and I believe centre negative. It's a 3.5mm plug ala headphones.

Related Question: Why does the Big Muff and the Small clone Chorus use that 9V adaptor that looks like a headphone jack?

It's just a different standard; ProCo also use them and DOD used to.

yeah, the old style classic sort of EH/proco adaptor. i prefer them really. i think the success of boss pedals ended up setting some sort of standard with the centre neg. which EH is catching up to with its recent pedals.
