Title: Can you use the same power supply on Access as you do for the smart hub?
Post by: Broaddd on February 18, 2018, 03:19:34 PM

I imported the wireless bridge, as it was then called I think, to Australia so purchased a power adaptor for it. I see it’s been renamed the smart hub, and I need to replace it with an Access. I was wondering if the Access uses the the same DC plug and voltage, or at least a standard type of DC plug rather than a proprietary one?

Cheers,

It (access) uses a small camera and phone end style plug, and does not use a round end like the smarthub

That sounds good, so a suitable wall USB charger and cable should do the trick?

5 volts is all you need, and mine came with a plug.

Here is a photo of the power adapter that comes with the Access.  It's using a micro USB connector.
