Exp. Module 1 / Component mod questions

[Dant]

I am considering buying a Colecovision w/ Expansion Module 1 for 2600 games but, I have three questions about it.

 

 

 

1. What (if any) compatibility problems does the Expansion Module have with 2600 games?

 

2. I've seen that the component mod is a bit hit or miss in terms of working w/ correct colors or at all. Has it been improved since? Is it currently a viable option?

 

3. If I so choose to get some sort of video mod done, can I use the signal from the mod for Atari games, or will I have to revert to RF?

 

 

 

Thank you, for any and all answers.

Well, I seem to have found the answer to both questions 1 and 3.

 

Still the question remains does the Expansion Module 1 work with video mods?

 

If the way I type makes me look like a spambot just say so too.

There are various ways, kits, sources of doing the mod, and I have heard of some of the methods used result in the system not working or partially not working (eg. no sound) with the Expansion module 1.

The ones that I have offered in the past on Ebayhave had no issue with video nor sound with the mod playing Atari games.

I have a CV fitted with A/V mod from channelmaniac. It works with the expansion module.

Thanks to both of you, that's exactly what I need to know.
