I switched out my Kessil 160 for a Kessil 360. Since the plugs for the power adapter from the 160 fit into the 360 I left the 160 adapter plugged into the wall and plugged the 360 into it. A week later and my 360 doesn't work anymore :( I looked at the adapters and there's a noticeable size difference. Did I blow out the 360 forever? The fan still works but the light doesn't come on.

Tia,

The a160 is only 40 watts while the 360 is 90 watts. I'm not 100% positive that the power bricks are the same, but it is possible that if they are and the light was trying to draw more power than the brick was rated for it could cause an issue. Try emailing kessil once as they have outstanding customer service and can answer your question definitively for you.

Thanks I will do that. From what i could tell the numbers (watts, amps etc) on both power locks are the same but the size of the blocks is significantly different.
