Neo2T power supply - will a GSM40B48-P1J substitute for a GSM40B48-P1LTE?

The male jack of my Neo 2T power supply is damaged (because it sticks out of the back of the machine in a way that makes it very easy to knock when walking past). Garmin's own replacement power supply is an absolute rip-off, priced at £63 (UK pounds). 

The power supply is a 48V 0.84A one, with the ID GSM40B48-P1LTE. Various online sources have similar PS units available for around a third of the price, with the ID GSM40B48-P1J, e.g. https://www.powersuppliesonline.co.uk/power-adapters/gsm40a48-p1j-40w-48v-0-84a-power-adapter.html

I'm wondering if this will work. It's exactly the same power spec. so my only worry would be whether the jack is the same or functionally the same. I've a feeling that the P1J / P1LTE bit may refer to the jack type, although they look identical in pictures.

  • You're a genius, not only does my new power block now work, my damaged jack started working as well on the original block when I tried it even though part of the jack had snapped off. Thank you, you have saved me a lot of stress and money. I won't be leaving the jack in again when not in use! 

  • Sounds like you did  exactly the same thing as me - trip over the cord and rip the jack out in a way that damaged the jack and also bent the springs in the socket. I did sort of manage to get the old jack working in the socket again after bending out the springs even although a bit was broken off, but it was very temperamental (it needed to be rotated around at a certain angle). With the new jack and the socket springs bent back it's perfect again. But yes, removing the jack after use has now become part of my routine.. ;-)

  • I have just bought a P1J and the plug is too wide for the trainer. 

  • Like everyone else, I happened across this old thread while researching replacement (non rip off) power supplies for Neo 2t

    What's strange is the power supply shipped with the unit is the P1J
    Unit was purchased direct from Wiggle back in 2020

    But reports here are that that should not fit. 

    I had some OD 5.5mm x 2.1mm inner diameter male plugs lying from a previous project, and can confirm that these do not fit. The inner diameter is too small.

    Now, I'm very confused.

    I think I will get some of the 5.5mm x 2.1mm to 5.5mm x 2.5mm adaptors, and repair with the connectors I already have:
