tiggerthehun Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 I've heard that one can acquire 2600 power plug replacements @ Radio Shack. What exactly would I ask for to make sure that it'll work? Part # would be even better! Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Room 34 Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 You can also get a multi-adapter that handles multiple plug styles and voltages readily at many stores... I used one of those with my 2600 for many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 9V/800mA AC-to-DC Power Adapter 800mA? AFAIK 500 is enough (though 800 should be no problem). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARI TROLL Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 They have it in their catalog! Make sure that you let them know that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, 500mA is sufficient, but radio shack quit selling them I think AFAIK the 800mA is the closest they have at 9V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Mitchell Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 #273-1770 .... #273-1709 When you tell the Radio Scrap sales clerk the part numbers .. and they walk over to their computer terminals (instead of going to the parts themselves), remind the idiots to put the dash into the part number when they type it in. That will avoid them saying, "We don't have a part number like that in our computer!" (Yes this has happened to me twice .. once on the east coast and once on the west coast).

Room 34 Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 Well... you just have to ask yourself this question: If you were smart enough to do a competent job working at Radio Shack, would you really want to work at Radio Shack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMila75 Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 Is the power supply the same for the Junior 2600 as well as the older models? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
