yell0w_lantern Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 My Sears Super Video Arcade's transformer seems to be bad. I don't trust the one I found on ebay. Does anyone here have a known good transformer they would sell me or a recommendation for using off-the-shelf parts. I imagine it's unlikely there is an exact replacement being manufactured but maybe 2 transformers to get all the voltages? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have both the 15 Watt and the 18 watt. IM me if you are interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hydrofoil Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 I know this is a little old now, however I have 3 * Intellivisions with bad transformers that either have 0v or .5v output rather than the 18v I believe for Australia. Anyone know how I can get 3 here in Perth WA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshuajcmacdonald Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Just saw this thread. I picked up my first intelivison. Found I had a bad transformer. From what I can see online the voltages coming out are 9v and 9.23v. Trying to find a suitable replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_me Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 According to the 2609 service manual, it's 8.5vac and 17vac +/- 10%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
