Topic: Power Cord Posted: 27 Jul 2016 at 4:55pm |
I just received my new Aura desktop. However, the provided power cord to the unit is very short and will not work with my application. Can you tell me where to get a longer replacement?
Thanks! |

I second the extension cord. Just get one a little heavier than the typical household ones. At least a 14 gauge, 12 gauge is real safe.

Make sure it is three pronged (w/ground). Or get a UPS and put it close, connect to it and....

I guess I could get an extension cord. I had the desk it sits on custom made and the cord needs to route through a steel leg to make it less obtrusive. I have an APC surge protector ran from the wall to directly under the desk, but the 3' cord provided with the computer is barely long enough to reach the floor and is not long enough for even the small amount of routing needed.

If it's like the normal computer cord, Amazon has a variety of them under "computer power extension wires". Maybe you can find one there or in Ebay.
Or, you can make one by buying the end plugs and an extension cord and cutting to size. Edited by hoserator - 28 Jul 2016 at 12:25pm |
