im wondering when shortages of gdemu clones will hit the market because of corona? for that matter most imported tech from china is going to be in short supply.

Idk, I've been wondering the same thing. I actually got my Pico PSU from Poland a few months ago. But I still need the brick, and now I'm not getting it from China cause I'm hesitant I guess.

Pick the slow shipping option and don't forget to buy more toilet paper

Someone must frag that stinky corona virus. It's lame, disgusting and annoying.

Considering that only 0.066% of the chinese population is infected with the corona virus, I don't expect the world to be running out of clones anytime soon!

PicoPSU use standard plugs found on many brick-type power supplies. You might be able to find one in thrift stores...
A year ago i found a 12V 5A power supply once used on a small Sharp LCD TV in a thrift store, but the TV had a broken panel (visible cracks even when not working) so i just picked the power supply, thinking "i might need it at some point in time, since it's standard 12V" and it does have a standard plug, so now i'm using it on my PicoPSU. I think they suggest at least a 2A or 3A 12V power supply.
