I probably would too. It seems the easier path. I'd probably snip the barrel jack off an acceptable power adapter, and either solder a screw down terminal, if i could find one with the same pin spacing as the OEM barrel jack. Or probably just solder the wired directly onto the board. Not like the board is going to have much of, if any warranty . . . But as Gerald said. I probably wouldn't have bought such a board to begin with. $45 for a BBG or if you must have a BBB $55 really is not that much to pay for such an awesome board. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
