Someone gave me one of
these but the power adapter that came with it doesn't power the unit.
I had a look at the manual for the unit and it specifies that it requires a
5V, 1.3 amp power supply. The one supplied has an output of
DC0.5V, 3.0 amp.
I went around the house and found a power supply with a similar plug, and found one with an output of
12V, 1.6 amp. It powers the unit, but I'm scared it might damage it on the long run.
Do we have any electricians in the house?
Would using the latter power supply (output of
12V, 1.6 amp) damage the new toy I got (input of
5V, 1.3 amp) ?
Or should I go buy a new power supply for it?
thx
