Globallink 520 dead?

Last night, at AM 05.43 my Globallink unit stopped working according to VRM monitored from a distance.

I went over to the cabin to see what was going on and saw no LED's blinking on the unit at all.

I disconnected power and plugged it in again. Nothing.

So I checked the DC input with a multimeter: it read 12.8V (after fuse). Hmmm. I have no idea what's going on here. Anybody ever had their Globallink die unexpectedly?

Before returning the unit I gave it one more try and tested it with another power supply. Surprise! It worked perfectly. So I am both pleased (though somewhat ashamed also) to declare the Globallink resurrected. Very nice little bugger, this GL520!
