Back in October last year my EyeHome stopped working. I assumed has had happened before that the transformer had broken again.
What I did back then was ask Elgato and they replaced the transformer for me, however according to their website they can no longer provide replacements.
I was hoping to find a replacement for my EyeHome, but after having a good look around, trying even to use the PS3, in the end I decided that the only possible replacement was a Mac mini and even that was a compromise and not a real replacement.
I did try and find a replacement transformer, but though I thought I had found a potential supplier, it wasn’t clear which transformer I should buy for the EyeHome.
So for most of this year, the EyeHome was sat in the office and I waited paitently for Elgato to make a replacement…
Yesterday I started tidying up the office and I “found” the EyeHome and started to pack it into a box when I looked at the power supply input, noticed it said 5V and started to wonder…
The PSP power supply looked like it could fit…
It does fit…
It does power the EyeHome…
It lives!!!
