The old Commodore C64 PSU is the most common C64 failure cause ever. We know it and thanks to our continuous educating mission, most of C64 users are aware of this fact already. That's good!
Our C64 PSU is modern, replacement power supply unit for Commodore C64 and VIC20. Provides stable filtered 5VDC (up to 4.0A!) by industrial grade AC/DC power supply and full 9VAC (1,11A max) provided by classic heavy duty linear transformer unit. It is all integrated into small enclosure and dimensions similar to the original Commodore PSU. Durable, professionally molded enclosure assures good air ventilation, mechanical protection and electrical isolation.
The 5VDC output is now upgraded to 4.0A allowing to use the
C64 to C128 cable adapters
