[Lightpen case]

 

 

Any chance for the reset button?

 

OK, should be quite easy.

I don't know if Richard still sells them

 

Yes, I have some built.

[WTB: original lightpen]

Looking to buy an original Vectrex lightpen. Loose is OK.

 

 

 

 

Thanks

[Transferring data from 2600 to PC via audio?]

This circuit connects to a PC's serial port and will read/write the AVox / MemKey.

 

Very cheap and easy to build (no SMD components / firmware).

 

I have the driver software somewhere.

 

 

 

[Vectored monitor display problem (pictures attached)]

Looks like the brightness is turned up too far. Perhaps that pot is also broken.

[just some 7800 questions.....]

Well spotted

[just some 7800 questions.....]

AtariVox works but needs to either be removed from it's shell

 

 

This is my alternate Avox case which does fit the 7800.

 

I can supply the .stl files if anyone wants to 3D print one.

[AtariVox+ cable]

The microcontroller was badly soldered in (misaligned with the pads)

[New: VECTREX Joystick Kit for sale]

Started work on the 3D-printed case.

 

I put in more PCB spacers on the board to reduce the wiring.

[AtariVox+ cable]

I've fixed your AtariVox+. PM me with your shipping address.

 

 

Thanks

I just wish someone had a 3D printed case to offer

 

I'm going to have a go at 3D printing a case once my kit gets here.

[AtariVox+ cable]

Send it to me, I'll have a look at it for you.

[Atarivox+ killed my Vectrex?]

 

 

It does use power from the port so maybe you had a weak cap (or some other piece) and it was the last straw????

 

I would say that's possible. It's definitely not directly caused by the Avox.

 

Some display distortions can be caused by a faulty PSU.

[VecMulti, DEV mode? Windows 98?]

http://hackaday.com/2014/02/19/ft232rl-real-or-fake/

 

It's fake. I've had some of these and they work slower / more inconsistently than the genuine part

[Is this normal? I just bought a Vectrex...]

If you want to 3D print one, here's a model I did (with 'D' shaped hole) -

As you can see this piece of hardware is no original one. Its from 2001. Would not spent more than 10-20 bucks for it.

you can built your own one like this with a wooden case or 3D-printer ! it's basically the same item than this one

 

I used to own one. It was the most beautiful, hand-crafted controller I've ever seen, a real work of art. Broke my heart when I had to sell it

[AtariVox+ (AtariAge Edition)]

I have tried clear filament but it turns out semi-opaque. It's the defraction caused by the multiple layers.

[AtariVox+ (AtariAge Edition)]

This is the current VecMulti case. It's silver PLA printed on glass (nice shiny surface) and I used my vinyl cutter to make the lettering.

[AtariVox+ (AtariAge Edition)]

It's the limits of FDM printers (the type most use at home - cheapest).

 

Better printers, like Objet, start at about $30K (and the UV liquid is $500 per Kg).

[AtariVox+ (AtariAge Edition)]

Correct

[Vectrex Processor Upgrade?]

Please do it, I REALLY want to see it working

[AtariVox+ (AtariAge Edition)]

OK, I've built a few AtariVox USB interfaces.

 

If you're a developer, I will send you one for no charge.

 

 

(AAMOI I recently got burned with some fake FT232RL's. These chips work inconsistently and slower than the real version)
