XT9 Power Supply

[LDR2688]

Does anyone know where i can buy a replacement power supply for XT9? i don't have the original charger so not sure what the connector size is either?

 

[fleckens]

Connector size on these is 4.0mm 1.35mm pin. 19v 1.75amps.

Pin size is a bit annoying as the standard ones for a 4.0mm barel are. 1.7mm.

Any asus charger that fits the above spec will do.

Are you sure that's a XT 9? And not an XT8 v1?

XT9 and XT8 v2 use 12v adapters with a standard 5.5mm plug.

It hasn't arrived yet - buying second hand and seller states lost power supply and can't find a replacement so selling without power. Picture of the bottom states XT9 and checked serial number on ASUS website and that says XT9 and still in warranty so looks legit. Does say 12V 3A too on the bottom - wouldn't the 19v 1.75A be too low ampage?

Also i thought it was the other way round? I've got XT8 v1 and that says 19v 1.75a v2 photos look like the first photo i sent of XT9 (thin metal around the dc connection)

 

[fleckens]

The ones that have the metal around them are the 19v sockets, like the XT8 v1. The XT9 does not have the metal around the socket, and those are 12v.

That's the reason I questioned it.

I happen to have these torn down see attached...

Something a bit odd maybe someone swapped the bottom label. I know for fact asus don't make 12v supply with that 4.0mm plug.

My XT8 v1s look like the top board but is 19v though so now i'm even more confused

So am I now... Wouldn't make sense for them to mix different voltage power supplies and use the same plug.

Post pics of your v1 XT8 please...

You can see the model numbers on the power board.

Nope... you're right just double checked they are like you say - obviously something dodgy with the box i've bought - will know more when it arrives on thursday. Thanks for all the info! Been really helpful!

 

[fleckens]

I've just found that listing as sold... Was it the twin pack?

 

[LDR2688]

That's the one - thought it was worth a shot for £20!

 

[fleckens]

If you look at the second router some one has swapped the insides as the case is for an XT9 but you can see a gap....

Oh dear....

 

[fleckens]

Yep worth a shot, lol.

If you find they're faulty you now know someone who can fix them

 

[LDR2688]

Tbf even they're really XT8s will still worth £20

 

[fleckens]

Yes deffo worth it. Let's hope you get lucky and it works out.

Anyway seems you already have the right power supply for these with your existing ones so you can try it.
