Title: Super Grafx AC adaptor for the UK
Post by: soop on March 15, 2011, 11:08:43 PM
Is there a standard UK adaptor people use for the SuperGrafx?  I use my Megadrive adaptor for the others but it doesn't fit, obviously.

LMAO!  Ok, I mailed a power supply company saying I needed a 9v 800mA adaptor with a 6.3 x 3mm jack, and they said they'd never heard of one.

Then they mailed me back saying they've just recieved the first one they've ever seen today!  It's 9v, but 2250ma.
I've heard before on here that the console should only draw what power it needs, but there was some debate.  Should I go for it?

It should work, but this one (http://www.radioshackuk.co.uk/epages/BT2533.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/BT2533/Products/661-0401) is a lot closer in specs.  Which is cheaper?

O____O

That's fantastic!!! :dance:

I'm just gonna get that one, thankyou very much!!
You've basically fixed my Megadrive sound problem, powered my Super Grafx, and possibly provided a power supply for my MD2!

I might get a couple!

That one worked on my Duo no problem, should be OK for you.

Yep, Works for me too, and also fixed my MD sound, works on the other PCE systems and Gameboy lite.

Doesn't work on my GT or my MD2, but I can live with that.  Thanks again to Necromancer!
