For example, the usb supply that came with my Samsung galaxy or Arlo camera. The current rating might be insufficient.

Hadn't thought about my TV. It's the one of the last high quality Plasma TVs made (65 inch panasonic with 3D) and probably 9 years old. Fingers crossed have had no issues. Then again, the power supply is built in rather than a power brick.

Re: [slim] A Reminder: When your Squeezebox 3, Touch or *Boom* "stops working"...
I've had two Duet receiver power supplies fail over the last 12 years. The last time I had a failure I bought one of these 'cords' (https://www.amazon.com/YIKU-Universal-5-5x2-1mm-Charging-Connector/dp/B0825SD9ZM/ref=asc_df_B0825SD9ZM/?tag=hyprod-20=df0=416794793908==g=2008919480420400099c===9029699=pla-973096075837=1===95587149484===416794793908==g=2008919480420400099==c===9029699=pla-973096075837) and then I can just pick up another USB wall charger. I did have a wifi card in a receiver fail and that was also replaceable. Any time I need a player now days I just build up another PicorePlayer.

At least you can buy generic 5V 2A replacements easily on eBay and elsewhere!

..at least for me it is the dang Logitech power supplies every friggin' time. So don't assume the box broke. I am lucky enough to have several of them around so can easily test with other power supplies. And... voila!... it's fixed it every time. Never had another issue with the stable of Squeezeboxen I have... about 5 S3s, 2 Touches, 4 Booms, 1 Radio, 1 Duet. Always the power supply. I can't recall worse power supply quality in any other product, but in all fairness I am not sure I have any other piece of electronics in the house that I still use every day after 15 years or so... ...pablo Server: Win10 and LMS 8.2.0 System: SB Touch --optical->- Benchmark DAC2HGC --AnalysisPlus Oval Copper XLR->- NAD M22 Power Amp --AnalysisPlus Black Mesh Oval->- KEF Reference 1 Other Rooms: 2x SB Boom; 1x SB Radio; 1x SB Classic-> NAD D7050 -> Totem DreamCatcher + Velodyne Minivee Sub Computer audio: workstation --USB->- audioengine D1 -> Grado RS1/Shure 1540 pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115091 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
