Looks like the power adapter to my Umbrel broke. The USB C connector that plugs into my Umbrel snapped out of the black rubber tip of the power adapter. Not sure if I can snap it back in, but I’ll try. If that doesn’t work, can I power the Umbrel with a standard USB C cable that plugs into a normal power adapter (e.g. for a cell phone)? If not, how can I get a new one?
I’m seeing 12V / 2500ma on the Umbrel power adapter, so I’m guessing a cell phone power adapter won’t work. Can I use any 12V / 2500ma adapter with a USB C connector, or must I use the Umbrel adapter. Hopefully any will work, because this Umbrel adapter doesn’t seem to be very good quality.
I picked up a 30W power adapter over the weekend and a USB-C to USB-C cord, and everything’s running again! Umbrel should reimburse me the $35 to replace their junky power adapter. You would think for the $500 I plunked down for this device that the adapter would be better – at the very least, make it so the USB-C cord can be replaced.
