MINT Atari Lynx II - New Flex Circuit, McWills LCD and 5v Regulator modded

Hey all!

 

I currently own three Atari Lynx (one I, and two II's - all with the same mods), and even though there's no need for me to get rid of any of them, there's no need for me to hold onto all. So here's one of my mint Lynx II's!

 

This Lynx is in perfect working order, and although the case itself is mint, there is a very fine line on the screen cover (as shown on the pics) which does not hinder visibility at all. This Lynx has been fitted with McWill's LCD screen which outputs EXTREMELY sharp images and vibrant colors - AND helps increase battery life dramatically compared to the stock LCD!

 

Also, the 5v regulator used is a RECOM R785.0-1.0 (1412) which can be found from Mouser/Digikey. A minimum of 6.5v is required for this regulator to output 5v and boot up/keep the system running - so please use FRESH and NEW batteries when first playing this for the best and longest possible experience.

 

Last but not least, a new flex circuit has been installed so there will be no problems with the system powering on! The only thing you will notice with this system is the slight hairline in the plastic cover over the screen, other than that no scratches on the case. The system does have the original grips in the rear, AND the battery cover.

 

 

I'm asking for $250 Paypal'd and shipped via USPS Priority throughout the lower 48 states, anywhere else must be calculated.

Oh yea, you also get a free copy of Xybots :)

Feel free to ask any questions you may have, and thank you for looking!

No worries! Well there are zener diodes on the PCB and if and when they die (they eventually will unless you replace them), 9v full volts will flow through the system and will damage it.

 

So this replaces them and prevents damage from ever occurring. I wanted to just replace them at first but then I decided to just upgrade the system.
