Thank you, that was very informative. I will go for preventive recap and power switch care. As for the audio, not really sure. The buzz is part of the fun and not too annoying

Hi all,
I have a Vectrex in working order (used rarely). I was wondering if any maintenance to the hardware was desirable to keep it in the best shape. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Didn't I already confirm that I will gladly accept normal Paypal? What's your point here, just making noise and hijacking a thread?
No problem, I tell you what: sale's over. The Inty will be sold elsewhere for (to my regret) a higher price. I'll pay higher fees, the buyer higher price and everybody is happy (or not?)
Have a good Sunday guys, peace and love
Cheers

Thanks for your recommendation AratiLeaf, but Paypal friends-family is widely used and accepted on many forums, including for example most Facebook sale groups, and doesn't violate any Atariage forum policy to my knowledge.
In the case yours is a way to express interest in the item while asking for another payment option, please be informed that I'll gladly accept normal paypal with a very small surcharge to compensate fees (and not because a couple of "bucks" bother me much, but just because I'm trying to offer a low price for the item).
If instead you are not interested in the item, then I kindly ask you not to compromise the interest others may have with random scamming accusations
Regards

Is this thread the place to get one cart or is there an official website?
Nothing significant to report at the moment.
There won't be a pre-order but I don't expect that I'll run out of Hives any time soon

Vectrex hardware maintenance
in Vectrex

I've checked the unit after a while, and it plays fine, so I won't go into recapping it. What I notice is a very evident crackling sound related to power/volume potentiometer movements, so I believe I should service it. Also there's a very very subtle flickering at times on the video output, but it looks well within ranges of normal operation. Any suggestion for power switch care?
