AtariLeaf Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 There's a fellow locally who's selling an Intellivision II with about 20 CIB games for $30. Problem is, he doesn't have the power supply. I don't know anything about Intellivision so I'm wondering if a generic PSU can be used for this unit or if I need to find a real INTV II PSU for it to work.

The Intellivision II power supply is hard to find. There are other options. One is using an Atari 5200 power supply. That's what I do. Works great.

Almost Rice Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 There's a fellow locally who's selling an Intellivision II with about 20 CIB games for $30. Problem is, he doesn't have the power supply. I don't know anything about Intellivision so I'm wondering if a generic PSU can be used for this unit or if I need to find a real INTV II PSU for it to work. I believe my original PS is 16.2 VAC. I have used Atari 8bit PS that are 9 VAC. So the range is wide for what the Intv 2 will accept. I would definitely get the PS before buying it since you would want to test the controllers. If the games are CIB make sure the overlays are there. These go into the controller when you play. It is hard to remember if you want to play a game when you do not know the buttons to press. $30 is a good price for 20 CIB games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariLeaf Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 Is this a 5200 Power supply? I picked this up months ago but didn't know what it was for. I originally thought it was for the 8-bit computers but its not the same plug as my XEGS or 800XL. So if this is a 5200 PSU, this should work with the INTV II?

I'll check the Atari 8-bit faq to see what that is for. Found it. It's for the Atari 1027 printer. From faq: 9.5 VAC 4.2A (39.9 VA) Max:53W Atari#CO61636 Power Adaptor 1027,1090XL Allan Edited December 13, 2008 by Allan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
