Replacement Wahoo Kickr Power Supply?

In a recent move the power block for my Wahoo Kickr was lost. Wahoo will sell me a replacement for about $50. Is there a less expensive replacement?

Kickr PSU

Beware - you will need to find the Power supply Spec for the exact model Kickr you have.
No knowing if the Spec changed with the various model years released.
The PSU on my Kickr Bike fails to state if the output is AC or DC.
You will also have to match the size of the plug on the output cord.
No name replacements for mine are ~ $25-30 on Amzon.


Given the price of a replacement Kickr, $50 to get the power supply right first time is a safer bet.

All the best

12V, 5A


Some options here:

If it's UL (or other NRTL) listed the output is on there.

I looked again... You are correct in that it does use the symbol for DC.

So My Wahoo Kickr Bike (not the Kickr trainer the actual one piece bike) is 48V DC 3A 4.7mm/1.6mm (measured) center positive.
OR
Whatever Wahoo says it is when/if they ever sell me another one !

I just looked at mine, yes, 12v, 5a. You need to make sure it has the right tip.
