Over-volting protection and alternative PSUs
tech6 replied to tech6's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
Put me down as customer #1 for any device you come up with. I would imagine that most folks would prefer a plug and play device but I have no problems with a little cutting and soldering. -
Over-volting protection and alternative PSUs
tech6 replied to tech6's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
Thanks for that useful advice. I guess a 2A Raspberry Pie PSU would do it. -
It seems that Atari PSUs are subject to the same issues that some Commodore PSUs are - namely that the voltage they put out can increase with age and damage the motherboard. Is anybody aware of either a supplier of new XL/XE compatible PSUs or at least a protection device similar to what is available for the C64? http://www.lemon64.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=61438&sid=4a02722ad35fd97044b2a8fbbf4bdb82 Any info would be very welcome as one of my PSUs failed and took a perfectly good 800XL with it
