lester Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Hello. I'm trying to determine if my pineapple juiced has been "juiced", that is, broken. when I plug it into an a/c outlet using the provided adapters and connectors, I see one led light constantly blinking and after a couple of hours, that single light flashes and no other ones illuminate. Also, the USB/AC adapter tends to get warm -- not hot -- but warm. I've known in the past that with switched polarities you can see these kind of anomalies. any help much appreciated. Particularly interested to know others who have used the pineapple juice and their experience with charging it up via an a/c outlet and what kind of illumination they get. Thanks.

barry99705 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I charge mine off my laptop, I've never plugged in the adapter. Don't remember how the led's go though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neworld Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I'd recommend the Anker Astro3 10000mAh http://www.amazon.com/Anker%C2%AE-10000mAh-External-Battery-Android/dp/B005NGKR54/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1345956639&sr=1-1&keywords=anker This is the one I'm currently using to power my pineapple, usb hub, and raspberry pi at the same time.

Neworld Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 How long does that pack power all that stuff you have hooked up? Looks nice! Haven't had it running non stop... but I can guesstimate about 4-6 hours running everything. Pineapple alone much longer. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsm0ld Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Yea I have done some testing on the load of just the pineapple and its very low power, thanks for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
