Noted. It's what I had laying around. I'll replace with another. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074BRR5YN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 No offense taken Just bored and wanting something to do. It's an old Atari 7800 that I haven't even used. Got it from ebay a few weeks ago. One of the caps did leak (a small bit, nothing major), and the power connector was in bad shape, but it's looking TONS better so far.

I replaced the regulator with this https://console5.com/store/7805-l78s05cv-high-output-2a-5v-voltage-regulator-3-pin-to-220-5v.html Power mod I did was pretty easy. I just got a 2600 Power Supply as it works just fine https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-AC-Power-Supply-Adapter-Plug-Cord-for-the-Atari-2600-System-Console/300899583126?epid=1220483370&hash=item460f034496:g:BAkAAOSwHptY~-PH Opened it up (there's barely anything in them) put it inside the case, put the power out voltage to the atari, and for the power in I made a hole in the back, put one of these in https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0151DP046/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and wired it to it. That way it's just a normal non polarized plug that can be plugged into the back. And as for the controller ports, I got some NOS from ebay a week or so ago

Hello all! I've recently started going through and doing a recap/refresh of my older consoles. I've just finished the 2600 and I'm now onto the 7800 and have just a couple questions that I haven't found any real info on yet. So far I've recapped it, replaced the old buttons/switches, removed the power jack and added an internal power supply, replaced the voltage regulator, replaced the controller ports, and added a composite video mod (Gotta keep busy somehow ;P) The Green Chicklet on the 2600 was replaced with https://console5.com/store/22uf-100volts-film-capacitors-5-atari-chicklet-replacement.html ...Would this be the same on the 7800 as well? I know there are multiples on it The Silver Stryene Caps that were replaced on the 2800 with 820pF MLCC Ceramic Capacitors....Same for this I take it? Also, any other upgrade/refresh ideas for it? Thanks
