Stability issues and power supply.

[Limitless83]

I'd recommend the HP Touchpad Charger - I use it for my MK808B all the time and it's fantastic. Try **** for a good price.

thanks for the tip... couldn't find one with the EU plugs so i ordered an American one...

Doesn't fit what? The wall?

Into my MK808B

Then you're using the wrong USB adapter. You need a cable like this http://wirelessarmor.com/images/Mini...ta%20Cable.jpg . One should have come with your MK808B.

Yep, got that.

Could you link me to a power supply that I can purchase that will work in the UK - the HP Touchpad charger I purchased yesterday was this one http://www.****.co.uk/itm/5v-2A-10W-...-/161196024106

Don't spend extra money on another adapter. Search for a "micro to mini usb adapter" it will look something like this http://shop.crackberry.com/images/pr...00/large/2.jpg

My PSU solution

I was asked how i configured my PSU to run my TV stick and it's accessories so i have broken it down uploaded some pictures and hopefully you can see how i configured my PSU that now powers my TR 42 a seven port hub and my 1TB HDD.
I decided that i wanted it to switch on and off when i turned my TV off rather than a separate on/off switch, My solution to this was to use a relay module so i sourced a 5v trigger 10a 240v load relay module this cost a few pounds from ****.



Using this module allowed me to switch my supply on and off taking power from one of my TV usb ports ,I used a old PC USB port extension that comes with most motherboards but again can be sourced on **** for a few pounds this then allows me to plug a male to male usb cable into the TV and relay module.



Notice that the data links are disregarded as we only need the 5v trigger from the TV




Now this can be simply connected to the power supplies AC input turning the power supply on when i turn on the TV very simple to set up and just thought i would share my idear with this community




Few pics just showing the terminals on my supply very straightforward and simple to wire the relay board is connected between the power supplies mains connection



Just showing it all in a case again sourced from **** for a few pounds ,so now i plug a usb cable from my TV to the power supply and when my TV is turned on it turns on my power supply and the relay board has little or no load on the TV's US port .

Power supply is from here:

Noyce. Thanks for the share. Going to look into this.... I have faith in my power supply hardware, but an in-line 5 port supply would clean up some of the spaghetti I keep behind the TV.

Edit: beautiful hardware tweak, Wapvirus. Any shots of it completed, or does the shell lid not go back on top?
