No worries, I'll have a look at mine, see if I can bring it back to life.PhilC wrote: 01 Dec 2023 13:11 @rubber_jonnie sorry doesn’t look like I have the psu any more, probably binned it when decluttering.
Do you have any links at all?PhilC wrote: 01 Dec 2023 14:45 It’s worth looking at the new low voltage PSUs you can get for them, mine has run great since I replaced it.
On eBay it’s Sega Saturn PSU replacement but I’m sure mine was cheaper than that and I used my own 12v psurubber_jonnie wrote: 01 Dec 2023 15:15Do you have any links at all?PhilC wrote: 01 Dec 2023 14:45 It’s worth looking at the new low voltage PSUs you can get for them, mine has run great since I replaced it.

Very true. I have also seen Pico PSU's used too, so that may be an option.stephen_usher wrote: 01 Dec 2023 15:22 Should be easy to build one on some veroboard. Just needs a jack plug for 12V in and a buck converter to generate the 5V (I think you can get for for a fiver on Amazon) and wire up the output plug.
