RA* USB Power

[Loose]

Need a little electronic help. The micro USB header in my RA* came loose from the board so there no power. It's been a while since been on here and could someone point me to a schematic/pinout/advice so I can get it powered back up. My only concern right now is temperature, as I can't find my backup temperature power switch.

<heavy sigh>

Since I've been using the Cloud Wi-Fi hub, occasionally they get out of sync and I have to cycle the power on both units to get might lights to work properly. So I didn't have to unplug power from the RA* directly, I added a right angle micro USB adapter (pointing down) and an inline micro USB power switch. Yep, I thought this would reduce wear and tear on the RA*'s connector and I'd have a convenient way to cycle power.

Well, as it turned out, the was just enough wiggle when cycling power, that over the 3+ years I've been doing this, it actually split the RA*'s micro USB connector. Looks like I'm in the market for a new RA* as I'm not sure I have the micro soldering skills (or tool) to reattach power. <again... heavy sigh>. Any and all comments welcome to include 'Dude, you should have known what would happen every time that cord moved.' LOL!

Do you still have the usb power cable from the RA+?

I've never had an RA+. I started out with the RA*. I did purchase two RA controllers that I was planning on using for another tank. Are the power supplies the same?

I've only dabbled in USB but can I build a cable and power it though the USB A ports?

We use 5v. There is a cable on the webstore for that. It is called USB power cable.
It uses one of the temperature ports to power the head unit.
