FAQs
What devices can I power with this supply?
This power supply is suitable for devices requiring a 12V DC input with a current draw up to 1.25A (15W), such as routers, modems, external hard drives, certain network switches, and other small electronics with a compatible DC jack.
Does the 5.5/2.1mm DC jack fit all devices?
The 5.5/2.1mm is a common size, but not universal. You may need an adapter if your device uses a different size or type of power connector.
Can I use this power supply in any country?
Yes, the included UK, EU, US, and AUS adapters allow for use in most countries worldwide, provided the input voltage is within the 100-240V range.
Is the output voltage adjustable?
Yes, the product specifications indicate 'Adjustable output voltage: Yes', allowing for flexibility with devices that may have slightly different voltage needs within a compatible range.
What is the cable length?
The cable length from the power brick to the DC jack is 1.5 meters.
What is the warranty period?
The product comes with a 2 Year Warranty.
Can this power supply be used for laptops?
Generally, this power supply is intended for lower-power devices. Most laptops require higher voltage and amperage than this 12V 1.25A supply can provide. Always check your laptop's original power adapter specifications.
Troubleshooting
Device not powering on
Check that the power supply is securely plugged into both the wall outlet and the connected device. Ensure the correct country adapter is firmly attached. Verify the output voltage and current ratings of the power supply match your device's requirements.
Intermittent power or flickering
Confirm the DC jack is fully inserted into the device. Check the cable for any visible damage. Ensure the device's power requirement does not exceed the 1.25A (15W) limit of the power supply.
Power supply feels warm
Some warmth during operation is normal, especially under load. However, if it becomes excessively hot, disconnect immediately. Ensure the device's power draw is within the adapter's specified limits and that the area around the power supply is well-ventilated.
Wrong country adapter not attaching
Ensure you are using a Lindy-branded adapter for this power supply. Align the adapter correctly with the power supply unit and apply firm, even pressure until it clicks into place. Do not force the adapter.
