XG-7100-1U PSU

[dmad]

@mstrong hey man yeah, I did end up getting a replacement off of Amazon.

The caveat, however is that the 7100 PSU uses ONLY the cpu power connector, so the one they have loaded in there triggers on/off using magic is seems.

That being said, we did get an ATX power trigger switch to power up the firewall

Like one of these
DKARDU 2 Pack 24 Pin ATX Red LED Power On/Off Switch Jumper Bridge Adapter Cable for Pulsing Water Cooling Pump On and Off, 55cm https://a.co/d/3elADXH

I'd give you the exact psu, but I have to check with our purchasing, it's not on my Amazon account and I'm off today. It was like 150 bucks and was approximately the same physical size though. Pretty sure it was one of the ones previously recommended in this thread.

@stephenw10 netgate has none and won't sell individual hardware components. They say "send it in" and then they will replace the PSU, however none of the 7100s are in warranty anymore.

This means that everyone who bought a 7100 is left in the cold with a very expensive paperweight.

Hmm, I thought we did have some now. Might be for internal use only.

@stephenw10 who knows, I haven't called in about it for a while now though

@mstrong

this is the one we got:

So this PSU, with the atx switch wire:

will run your 7100.

Thanks for sharing dmad! I thought it would be a lot easier to source a flex atx 1U power supply under $100 - I guess that's why these are failing so often lol.

@stephenw10 Netgate Sales wants me to ship my bad PSU back and then sell me a failed-then-refurbished replacement Channel Well 150W PSU for $65. I'd rather not go through all that trouble and still have the exact same dubious PSU.

@mstrong well it is a standard size, and that's 150 canadian dollars.. i'm sure you could find a cheaper PSU if you looked hard enough.

Hi,

New problem with a XG-7100 power supply, today.
The third in 2 years...

My reseller told me he has no more stock. So, I am looking to alternatives. Do you have some power supply references I can buy somewhere ?

I found a CWT fsak150j, which seems compatible, but no way to buy it on the Web
