J-DEE Posted August 13, 2001 Share Posted August 13, 2001 What are the output rating on a 5200 power adapter. I was thinking of tring my NES power adapter to see if the 5200 even works? Has anyone tried this? Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/41-5200-power-supply/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanBoris Posted August 13, 2001 Share Posted August 13, 2001 The four port uses - 9.3V DC@1.95 amp and the two port uses - 11.5V DC@1.95 amp An NES power supply will not work, since it outputs AC power not DC.

I don't know if this is for sure though. Get yourself a 5200 power supply, and don't worry too much about the output. I have tried interchanging the power supplies for the two/four port consoles with success. My 5200 is still working, and my house hasn't burned; but I'm not responsible if yours does. OK? Remember: Only use a 5200 power supply with a 5200 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/41-5200-power-supply/#findComment-314 Share on other sites More sharing options...
