TOTAL Newbie - Power Supply problem
TOTAL Newbie - Power Supply problem
Guyz
I have a GSM repeater that was working very well, fitting some wall cupboards yesterday, the pin off the charger that plugs into the repeater has snapped. so no power to it now .
Question Is : How can I determine what power it needs to work, as the black box that usually has all the info on, volts amps etc, is blank, ( It is Chinese ? ? ?
I was thinking of getting one of the multi charger things and using that but didnt want to blow it up ??
is there any way of doing it or is it buy a new one time ?
thanks for any advice Guyz

Re: TOTAL Newbie - Power Supply problem
Hi
Do you have any instructions for the repeater, or are they available on the internet? They should tell you the power requirements. They might also be marked on the repeater, either on the label with the serial number etc or next to the socket that the power supply connects to.
Alternatively you may be able to get a replacement plug to fit to the existing power supply, altough you will need to solder this on, and really need a continuity meter or multimeter to check the polarity of the existing connector. Could you post a picture of the damaged plug and the input socket on the repeater (and anything else that might be useful, such as any markings / labels)?
