Mi box 3 plug size for replacement power supply

by Fantastins

Does anyone know where to find (or have calipers) to measure the DC jack for the mi box MDZ-16-AB? I've had enough with this international adapter crap falling out of my wall, I'm willing to throw a few dollars at this issue with a new 5V2A supply from eBay/Amazon/china.

With my crap ruler it looks like a 4.?? mm x 1.??mm plug, I was about to buy a 5mm x 2.4mm but that's wrong. It would be awesome if some fellow mi box owner with a caliper handy or better google-fu could confirm the outer and inner plug dimensions. Thanks!

I have several android tv boxes with the same DC jack and and also same voltage and ampere (5v 2Amp) and it works great with the Mi box. I even use a genuine PSP Phat charger at times. The size of the DC plug is the same as the DC plug of a PSP charger. the size is 4.0mm x1.7mm.

There are some adaptors that come with interchangeable tips. You could look into those.

I bought a ugreen one off amazon last week. The Xiaomi EU to UK plug adapter made an annoying whining noise when it was plugged in. Had to return the ugreen one as it was too small! Wish I'd seen this post a few weeks ago. Oh well it's been returned and I have my amazon credit. If you end up buying one let me know.
