Where would be the best place to order a power supply online and what brand would be best? Unfortunately I can't afford one from microsoft.

Power cable/supply nearly caught fire...

You can buy a replacement power supply from places such as Gamestop, however, your Xbox may be fried if it got hot enough to melt the power supply.

Make sure you buy compatible power supply though. If you have a newer FAT 360, get the smaller power brick, but if it's over a year old, get the larger brick. The larger brick will work with any console, but the small brick will only work with Jasper motherboards
(the newest "fat" 360s).

If you have a slim, I'm guessing they have their own specific power supply.

Microsoft doesn't recommend you use third-party power supplies on the Xbox One, since they don't license or certify them, and it carries a risk of bricking your Xbox. They only offer replacement power supplies as part of a repair request on your console: https://devicesupport.microsoft.com

GameStop occasionally offers genuine, used power supplies on their accessory racks, so that store could be worth checking out.

So there are options, but not directly from Microsoft. The Xbox One S and X have an internal power supply, so you can buy a replacement cord, but for the Original Xbox One they no longer service/replace/sell the power supply for that model.

This article has some information on the best place to buy a power supply for your Xbox One, but please make note of purchases and regions in terms of voltage and wattage.

Before you buy a new power supply, it MAY be that your power supply is simply overheating. Check all the ventilation holes for obstructions/dust, and give it a clean. Also make sure that it's in a place where air can freely circulate around it to keep
it cool - if this doesn't work then it would seem that you do indeed need a new power supply.

Hey there, the best place to get a power supply is from the Microsoft Xbox online service centre website, you can order one on there
myservice.xbox.com/.../Welcome.aspx All xbox power supplies are compatible with another, except for different models. For instance all old xbox 360 model power supplies are only
compatible with the old models, and all xbox 360 S power supplies are compatible with all xbox 360 S models.
