Nathan Olden’s Chair Crisis: A Finance Bro, a Missing Plug and the Company That Saved His Neck, Literally

Nathan Olden moves fast. Deals, deadlines and the high-octane world of finance and loans don’t exactly make room for sore muscles or slowed reflexes. So, when Olden, a sharp-suited operator with a penthouse in Lota and a stress threshold tighter than a variable-rate mortgage, invested in an Easy Lounge Shiatsu Massaging Lounge Chair, it wasn’t just a luxury. It was a necessity.

This is a man who calls it his “daily reboot.” The chair’s pulsating massage cushion targets his battle-worn neck and shoulders after endless hours fighting interest rate hikes and client expectations. “It makes me feel young again,” Nathan likes to joke. “I should be Nathan Young, not Nathan Olden after twenty minutes in that thing.”

That is, until disaster struck.

The Plug Pull That Almost Broke a Man

Moving into a new penthouse should be a win, not a logistical nightmare. But amid the chaos of boxes, movers and internet setup hell, Nathan lost something crucial: the power adapter for his beloved chair.

For those not keeping track, the adapter in question is the IVP2400-2500, a humble but critical piece of tech that turned his lounge chair from glorified armrest to healing machine. And without it, the chair was just furniture.

Add insult to injury: that week, a colleague accused Nathan of stealing a sale while he was off trying to unwind on holiday. Office politics, a busted chair and a sore neck, welcome to corporate hell. “I was just trying to help the client,” Nathan said. “And suddenly, I’m the bad guy and my chair’s dead? Unbelievable.”

The Great IVP2400-2500 Power Adapter Hunt

Here’s the part where you think: just buy a new adapter, right? Welcome to the black hole of consumer tech support. Nathan tried the manufacturer, radio silence. K Mart, JB Hi-Fi, eBay, Harvey Norman, if it had a search bar or a call centre, Nathan hit it. No dice.

Nathan ran his fingers through what was left of his hair and sighed, he was inches from giving up and consigning the chair to the corner of forgotten furniture when someone at one of those stores gave him a lifeline: “Try Campad Electronics.”

Enter Chris, the unsung hero of this saga.

The Return of the Chair, And Nathan Young

Nathan emailed Campad Electronics, half-expecting another canned response or a “sorry, can’t help.” Instead, he got a real person. Chris understood the assignment. Within days, Campad Electronics had sourced the exact replacement for the ever elusive IVP2400-2500 power supply. “Well call me Susan”, Nathan declared, “Campad Electronics came through”.

The chair lit up again. The hum of electric rollers returned. And with it, so did Nathan’s optimism. “Campad Electronics saved my sanity,” he told me, reclining once more in digital bliss. “The chair’s back, I’m back and Chris? He’s on my Christmas card list now.”

Now, after every brutal day in finance, Nathan’s got a reliable reset button. “It’s better than therapy,” he quips. “No offense to therapists. But none of them have rollers that get into your lower back like this.”

Bottom Line: Tech should work. Companies should help. And sometimes, saving one guy’s sore neck takes a little persistence and a local electronics hero. Nathan Olden might crunch numbers by day, but when the Easy Lounge Shiatsu kicks in, he’s just Nathan Young again.
