Well, I'm an idiot. I moved and forgot I had multiple different voltage/amperage things that use the same barrel jack, grabbed one and stupidly didn't check. Ended up plugging in a 12v/2a adapter from a hard drive instead of the 5v/3a one that's supposed to be used, now it won't power on at all. Is there any chance this is something fixable?

I don't think so...

I was afraid of that. You think there's any chance "user was a complete idiot" is one of the things covered under the warranty?Comment

well maybe if you just returned it ( before creating this topic that is!) saying "it just stopped" you might have had a chance... but unfortunately now your chances are slim (especially if u brougth through geekbuying as they frequent this site lol )...Originally posted by neoman4426 View Post

Eh, I'm not much for warranty fraud anyway, did that once several years ago and still feel horrible about it. I did indeed get it from Geekbuying (through their Amazon storefront, not the standalone site). I'll go ahead and contact them on the one in a thousand shot this is actually covered before I crack it open. In the likely event it isn't covered I'll see if I can figure it out, and if I can't but it is fixable I guess I'll either see if I can pay someone to fix it (if not cost prohibitive) or sell it to someone who can to somewhat lessen the costs of getting a new one.Originally posted by Addyhash View PostComment

Update for anyone who cares, I got in contact and they agreed to replace it for a fee, just got the replacement and am about to load Finless's latest up. The fee was a better rate than I was expecting if I had gone the sell it/pay someone to fix it route. Excellent customer service and I'll definitely be recommending GB if a relevant conversation comes up.Comment
