Need atari 2600/ atari jaguar power supply

Recommended Posts

Where can I find an atari 2600 and atari Jaguar power supply besides ebay? Can you get them from radio shack or from another system?

 

where can you find the tv hookups for the jaguar?

 

Thanks

At some stores you can buy a power supply on which you can adjust the polarity and voltage according to the systems needs.

Jaguar needs about 1.2a, so you'd pay a fair bit for a universal with that output. As an alternative (and probably a cheap one) you can use a Sega Genesis MK-1602 (black tip) on the Jag. It has identical voltage and amperage output (9v/1.2a). This is the one used on the original Sega CD models 1 and 2, and Genesis model 1 units.

 

The 2600 can use any standard universal AC adapter with 9v and 500mA output (tip positive polarity).

Argos in the UK now do switch mode versions of the usual universal power supplies that have been with us for years. one for £8 can do 1.2a

but if you want to play safe theres a 2.5a one for £15
