It's not every day that I have the chance to come here relaxed, so I'm going to drive the point home:

In the link provided by our friend

I notice a monumental mistake:
description:
-For your information, the original Freebox power supplies require either 12V 4.16A or 12V 3.15A
-Our 12V 5A power supply more powerful will provide the necessary amount of amperage to operate your device.

Oh shit... but how ridiculous these Free technicians are. I'm going to write a letter as a customer to tell him

Hello, Azimboomboom

Why such an outburst?
You should revise the basics of electricity.

The proposed power supply can provide 5A, instead of 4.16 or 3.15.
It provides 12v, so it's the same.

I don't see where the danger is, and surely not catching fire (unless there’s a serious issue).

I want to make it clear that I have no shares, nor do I work for Free, Webducommerce, or anyone.

You should have a herbal tea and go rest; it will pass...
