Power connector not sticking well into the MB PRO's back

Post by admin »

The black power supplies we sell with the Meteobridge PROs for some time now have some tolerances regarding the length of the metal connector that make them not giving a good and reliable power connection with some Meteobridge PROs. This can be easily solved by cutting back a bit of the black plastic insulator as shown in the image below. This is easy to do, no special skills needed and done within a minute.

With new deliveries we check this and cut back ourselves where necessary.
