Atari 2600 Tech Question

[Quadhorn]

How do's,

 

I'm looking for a couple of technical details about the Atari 2600. I've looked about the forums, the Krok Kart and Cuttle Cart homepages and the internet in general without success. What I'm looking for in particular are:

 

* Physical measurements of a "standard" A2600 cartridge, including the edge connector (yes I should just measure one, but all my stuff's in storage and I thought someone might know the "official" measurements instead of me measuring them wrong)

* How much current can a cartridge safely draw through the A2600?

* Does anyone know where I can get either the actual cartridge sockets for the A2600 and/or A7800 or something compatible?

 

Cheers,

QH.

I think it's 400ma.
