  • The Armbok charger?

    From Johann 'Myrkraverk' Oskarsson@21:1/5 to All on Tue Oct 27 02:13:19 2020
    Dear c.s.a.h,

    I'm dragging my Armbok out of storage, and I seem to have misplaced the charger. What does it look like? A quick image search didn't show
    anything definitive.

    I mean, I am assuming there's something in the package that's supposed
    to plug into the DC5V hole, but I don't find it yet. Is there anything
    written on it?

    The ARMbok is apparently a Pinebook, so presumably it looks something
    like this: https://pine64.com/product/pine-a64-international-power-supply-with-au-eu-uk-us-plug/?v=0446c16e2e66

    R-Comp's ARMbok webpage says that it can be recharged via its USB port: http://www.armini.co.uk/ARMbok.shtml


    If it's any help the outer diameter of the connector is 3.3mm. I bought one
    off ebay, but it was a year ago and I can't find any paperwork.

    I found a USB cable that fits, and works. Presumably came in the
    Armbok package, but doesn't look it's from Pine.

    Thank you all.
