[Atari 800 power supply replacement in Europe]

I use a RockPower NT 8 9V AC/2100mA for 1050 disk drive which is also 9V AC.

I guess 2A is enough for a 800.

There are 2 versions: one with UK plug and one with EU plug.

 

I have found NT 21 with similar spec; not sure why it’s more expensive than NT 8

I bought recently two RockPower Power Supply NT 20 EU 9V AC 4000mA for my 800 and floppy drives.

These are used for music instruments and you should find them in such stores.

Hi, Did you replace the plug by yourself or put a converter plug?

To close this case  is there any way of identifying the serial from inside? ?

Maybe just the bottom was cracked and got replaced

I have read full chain but cannot find v4 file. Is there one already? Thank you!

[Does all Atari 800 (not XL) have “800 U” on the serial label?]

There were no letters; just serial number around 450000 and date 1983 week 10 or close. Don’t recall the exact numbers. It seems rather late 800.

sorry thought you said there where no UK marks,  the power supply would have to be a UK supply, US supply is half that of UK and wouldn't plug up... if you managed to get it to plug up using simple prong adapter all the smoke would escape and nothing would work...

Inside it looks UK but outside on the label there is no 800U just 800. That’s why I was wondering why?

Interesting as it had UK modulator on the power supply motherboard and UK sticker on the cartridge slot  maybe other forum members have seen it.

Hi All:-)

 

I have recently seen two UK Atari 800 computers without “Atari 800 U” on the serial label on the back. I thought all UK PAL versions were labeled as 800 U?

Thank you all for fast replies

Thanks  that’s why many cut it off I guess

I was wondering what is the rear cable on the back of Atari 800? I’ve seen it on many pictures ?

Good evening,

 

Could you please recommend me a good replacement for Atari 800 (non XL) power supply available in Europe? 

 

Thank you! Michael

Hi All,

 

I have just bought my first Vectrex and joined the forum; it is an amazing machine.

Mine works well, but there is a "cloud" of dust inside, which I think would be good to remove. Do you know anybody servicing Vectrexes in Amsterdam NL?

 

Thanks a lot, 

Michael
