I have a gl2 and I purchased this cheap after market power cord combo pack. Well needless to say I used the power adapter that came in the pack to power my camera without a battery and it blew a fuse. I've tried four new canon batteries all new and even purchased a top dollar canon power cable and still no power. Did some searching and the cheap piece of junk power adapter I purchased in the pack has been known to blow fuses in the gl2. Only source I could find of this info was one YouTube video. Guy got the same cheap bundle pack I did. I was in hopes to post I a thread that someone could guide me or give me input on the fuses and what to change. I am pretty good with soldering just need some assistance with the rest or if there is just a board I could buy that has the fuses already on it and all I need to do is swap it out and how? Hope someone can help me soon and thank you to everyone and anyone who has any suggestions.
