Simon Carter Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Hi, I've just picked up a 410 Cassette deck, sadly with no power supply cable. Are there any suitable alternatives that I could use rather than trying to hunt down an original PSU (seems to be quite hard in the UK).

Mclaneinc Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 (edited) Eeek, just looked at my 410 and the voltages etc I initially are right but it seems to be using a 3.5 jack, never owned one of these till a few weeks back and I don't have the PSU myself.. A supply of an amp(?) that is 6vDC with the centre pin positive will do but I would imagine you would need to buy the 3.5 mono plug and solder it yourself..

mimo Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Yeah, I bought one of those universal jobbies from eBay. 3-12 volt DC with loads of different sized connections Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclaneinc Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 I think some of those have a 3.5 plug on? I have a box load of PSU's but none with a 3.5 on and as I won't be using the 410 I'll not bother with making a lead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TGB1718 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I still have my 410 recorder that was purchased with my 800, it takes it's power from a jack in the side of the 800 power supply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
