Alt3ma Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I apologize for the noob question and also if this question is else were. Does anyone know the name of the type of cable that can run from the pineapple to the pine apple juice. I have tried google searching and even referencing USB cable types, from a reverse google image search of the wifi pine apple being used with a power bank to pine apple unit to even a basic google search of different USB cable types. How I plan on running my wifi pine apple is from a third party Power bank to the pine apples DC power port. I realise over time I will have to find a feasible power unit but untill then I am stuck finding a correct cable. Any help in regards to this pitfall would help me alot. Thank you very much community for your time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alt3ma Posted June 2, 2017 Author Share Posted June 2, 2017 Edit I now know what type of cable to use but not the barrel dimensions for the cable. I know it is a USB to DC port cable however I don't know the barrel dimensions on the DC port size. Checking the normal DC charger that comes with the pineapple shed no light on this subject.
