Like another here my Unifi USG wouldnt boot up and just had a blinking console light. After some research on Unifi forums, it became clear the problem had to do with the unifi power adapter gone bad or not powerful enough. I bought the 12V 2 amp model of Chanzon and my USG is happy as can be again. Not sure about longevity but relieved that the solution was simple.
