Looking for an Atari 5200 2 port power supply.

Recommended Posts

Im was wondering if anybody had a spare Atari 5200 power supply. I was just given a free 5200 2 port console and i have no power supply for it. Ebay is really expensive so i was hoping some one on here could sell me one cheap? Let me know if you can.

I've got one. The problem is that they weigh a ton and don't ship cheap.

Just so I will know. I know that on 4 port PS plugs into RF and on 2 port PS plugs into console, but is it the same PS in each case and just a different RF unit for the 4 ports?

I think they are the same power cord. Id check google to be sure but i think its just how the power is hooked into the box is how the 2 and 4 port units differ.

Yes, same power pack for both models

 

They do have different ratings, search the 5200 forum for details.

I'm curious why the use of the VCS adapter would make a difference? The 2-port has lesser specs as compared to the 4port in regards to voltage so... does the 2port put out higher amps?

Unless you're going for a stock power supply, you might consider ordering a new replacement from a store like Retro Game Supply.

 

The power supply for my 5200 stopped working, and the replacement I got from them works without issue.
