GL-X3000 voltage difference?

Routers

Just send an PM instead of sharing it here :wink:

25

@admon if this was comment to me please PM me and show me how to do it.

I at least was not able to find a way to PM @Tim-Zhang

I donā€™t think this forums supports PM.

Thanks @doczenith1 for the tip but I canā€™t. We talked with admon and it looks that this option is not available for new users like me.

We got your shipment address from our E-commerce team, we will ship the cable to you after the samples are ready, while these samples need some time to manufacture and test.

@onni Hi Onni. FedEx delivery has arrived, please contact them for customs clearance, contact information: 800123800, deadline 1-26. Thank you!

Hey @Summer and @Tim-Zhang,

I already tried to contact you through private message but didnā€™t get answer.

I never received the Fedex tracking code so I canā€™t pay for the customs :sweat_smile:

Can you please send their tracking code?

I would like to obtain a power cable for my Sprinter 2500 when 1 is available.
Canā€™t get my GL-X3000 to connect to T-Mobile. Been working with T-Mobile support for a couple of days now.

I used this cable from Amazon Amazon.com: 6FT 5.5mm x 2.1mm to Bare Wire DC Power Pigtail Cable, 5.5x2.1mm Right Angle Male Plug Jack Power Supply Adapter Repair Cord for CCTV Surveillance Security Camera IP Camera LED Strip DVR Router : Electronics. I wish something like this would have come with the router but it connected easily and I spliced into the winegard wires by the antenna for the winegard router.

Everything I see indicates this device is 12v/2.5a ... so 30w. I assume since my RV is closer to 13.6v and this device can easily accept a range of voltage, I would still consume 30 watts so closer to 2a?

I ask this question because power usage based on my Shunt is significantly higher with this device plugged in. I am monitoring remotely and will verify next time I am in my RV, but I would estimate closer to 10-15a of current draw. Does this make sense?

Hi,

May I confirm if you ask the router is X3000?

X3000 maximum power consumption is about 15w (not include USB, the specific value depends on around cellular stations situation, like distance).

If the input voltage is 13.6V and the power consumption is certain, the corresponding current (dynamic) should be around 1-1.2A. Please observe the current value one more time.

36

Confirmed router is GL-X3000. I appreciate the data and I will report here what I observe by unplugging the router and plugging it in.

I am just (pleasantly) surprised at the power consumption being so low considering this is a lot more complex than my Netgear nighthawk which was around 1.5amps I believe

Additionally, when I had the X3000 plugged in with your USB PD adapter it required a 30w PD plug. Regardless the until does seem warm but I will monitor during my trip these next few weeks

Thank you

The most likely reason for the 30 watt PD plug is to trigger a 12 volt PD connection, not actually draw 30 watts.

38

Good thought. That's probably a diff scenario anyways. My pd block did get warm and so did GL-X3000. More details when I actually camp with it

Thank you
