R8500 purchasable power supply

For international frequent movers it would be interesting to get easily power supply as spare parts and to puchase it directly to Netgear.

  • Look at the plug polarity, output voltage and, importantly, the output current on your existing P/S.  Then go on e-bay and buy one with the same specifications for the country you are visiting.

  • Power adapters have universal input voltage. Only thing you need is compatible plug for the place you are visiting.

      VE6CGX is correct. Just purchase the compatible plug or get like a universal adapter.

       

      aalexandrebeta We do not sell power adapters only.

      • Is it possible in the future to have the ability to buy power supply only, it would be great!

      Read the label on the adapter. It is universal input voltage. Wuat yiou need is plug adapter not power adapter.

      • I must have not expressed myself clearly.

        What would be great is to have the ability to purchase another spare part from Netgear in case of damaged or cuted cord or in case of international moving with another plug, voltage and type plug. It's time to go green. I really don't mind paying for that.
