rietveld Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I have found that a Nintendo (nes) power supply will work as a replacement for PAL ECS units instead of the supplied 220 Also found that an Atari 600/800 power supply works in place of my Intellivision II 's missing power supply Hope this info helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Aren't both of those 9V AC power supplies, though the Atari one probably is beefier than the NES one is? I haven't looked into the requirements, but if it works for you it is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rietveld Posted December 4, 2018 Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 Not sure about the atari. I don't see any markings. But the NES is 9v 1.3 amp. The ECS needs 10v 1amp. The NES AC adapter seems to be working. I will keep an eye on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiLic0ne t0aD Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I don't remember the specs, but I use an Atari 5200 power supply on my Inty II's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intymike Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 That you can use the NES/SNES power adaptor for the ECS is a well known fact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rietveld Posted December 4, 2018 Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 My PAL ECS came with a 220 power supply so I was glad to find this out. I heard that the NES fits the INTV 2 but I couldn't get the barrel to fit the pin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that the NES fits the INTV 2 but I couldn't get the barrel to fit the pin btw. there is no such thing as a PAL ECS. Only a grey or a brown one. They both work either on PAL or NTSC Intellivisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rietveld Posted December 4, 2018 Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 I guess I stand corrected. I bought mine from Tunisia in Africa and it was advertised as PAL. Maybe the seller assumed that it was PAL because his Intellivision would have been the PAL version. Anyway I stand corrected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
