colecoadam Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 From one perfectionist to another: I really appreciate how you take the time nessessary to put out only your best work. I'm excited to finally ditch that SmartWriter behemoth, but good things are worth the wait. :-) Thanks again, Rey, for all your work bringing this power supply to the rest of us Adam fans! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rey Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 QUESTION. What printer can I buy that works well with the Adam printer interface. Any suggestions would be great. Honestly I have no idea. Didn't think anyone would still want to print with the ADAM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klasko54 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I guess your right. Why would I want to print other then to watch and listen to the smartwriter's vintage glory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klasko54 Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Hey, anyone, Can I use a standard db9 cable to extend the 9pin connector from the Adam printer to the memory console? And, will a db9 ab switch work to switch between the power supply and the Adam printer? Thanks. Kevin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phattyboombatty Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 OHMAHGERD OHMAHGERD OHMAHGERD! Just received mine and WOW! Somebody get on the horn with Mark Thomann and let him know that these are to be blessed as the OFFICIAL Coleco ADAM Power Supply!!! Unbelievable thing of beauty, weighing in at just 14 ounces (22 ounces with the heavy duty cables, which are attached), and smaller than the size of your open hand, this power supply is the most badass missing link since the SGM! Why? Because now you can just use your standalone ADAM for lotsa games, including Team Pixelboy's Coleco ADAM cartridge conversions! I can't say enough good things about this supply. Rey deserves a gold medal for this one! Thanks brother! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punishermark Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Okay, now you're really making me regret getting one of Rey's first-generation power supplies. I am happy with my first gen power supply. Keep it up Rey!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digress Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 The power supply works great!. I would recommend them to anyone wanting to ditch the printer. It makes you adam actually (kind of) portable. Nice improvement and now the adam is not much bigger than the colecovision to setup and play some games on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klasko54 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 BIG HAPPY FYI..... I just finished up on my project, hooking up two Adam printers to My Adam, and switching between the two. HAPPY TO SAY, Using three AWG20 1 foot 9pin M/F serial cables, and a 9pin serial rotary style AB switch, I was able to hook up two Adam printers, and switch between both of them WITH NO POWER LOSS, AND PERFECT FUNCTIONING! Very proud of this accomplishment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 My printer just started to make an odd humming noise when I turn it on (not too loud, but if you're close you can hear it). Is this common or does this mean that it's starting to die and I should get a replacement power supply? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klasko54 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Hi Tempest. Yes the humming noise is quite normal. The power supply transformer is HUGE, and that's whats causing this issue. All the printers I own make this noise. Nothing to worry about. Cheers! Kev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Tempest... what klasko54 said and I would still recommend that you pick-up an extra (backup) power supply. Rey's new P.S. unit is the ideal solution, but if you want to remain a truest and keep using an ADAM Printer, then you should watch eBay as there have been numerous printers put up for auction recently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digress Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 In case anyone was wondering. The roller controller works fine with the new power supply. as does the ide cf card. Supergame module and anything else I tried. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Loguidice Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 In case anyone was wondering. The roller controller works fine with the new power supply. as does the ide cf card. Supergame module and anything else I tried. You're still using the IDE CF's own power supply right, or did you tap into something on the Adam?
