I am looking for a PSU for a Commodore 128 computer as per the attached pictures.

I dont intent on using the C128 much so it needs to be as cheap as possible and UK only please.

Original Commodore one preferred.

Payment will be by Paypal.

Hi Taj

Might be an idea to Pm Exlient.

Marco has helped me out with Commodore stuff and might have a 128 psu available.

Hope this helps (y)
 
Hi mate,

I will certainly keep him in mind, but I fear the postage will kill the deal as a PSU will be quite heavy hence preferring a UK based seller :(
The other thing is Im not even sure this works as the guy I got it off gave me an Amiga PSU with it and said he had tested it :double

Thanks anyway :)

ooooops :picard

Just do not get some peeps......Hopefully it has not done any damage.

They are great machines and if you get the right upgrades will replace your 64 (y)
 
cant you or someone on here bodge a power supply with the right voltages to see if this works?

or borrow you a bench supply with multi outputs...

Errr yeah I should have thought of that Roy! :D:LOL:
Perhaps someone could lend me a C128 PSU so I can test it?
I would of course pay postage both ways :)
 
Good I stumbled across your request.. I initially thought "Same" connector as an A500 so might be same PSU.

But....

Amiga = -12V, +5V and +12V
C128 = +5V and ~9V

That would have killed the computer in an epic smoke storm :picard

So thank you for this unintended lesson (y)

:LOL: youre welcome :D

The guy I bought it off said it works and gave me an Amiga PSU with it :double I dont actually know if he used that PSU to test it or not so Im not 100% sure it works :blink:
 
it might be a silly question,but.

have you asked the person you had it off to see if he still has the power supply,he might of handed the wrong one to you by mistake.
(they do look similar)

:LOL: Good question Roy :) I should have said, this was at a boot sale :Doh:
 
Hi Taj,

Are you going down to the Fitz Steve's Meet on the 1/2/2014?

If so I will be showing a C128 down there and we could try yours on my power supply.

Just a thought :cool:
 
I think that my brother has an original C128 PSU, if you want it, i can search for it.

Hi mate,
I was hoping for one from the UK due to the PSU being quite heavy but if you get me a total inc postage I will let you know (y)

I suppose that shipping will cost more than the PSU itself.
Maybe 10-15 GBP, far more than 5 GBP cost of the PSU.
 
i was going to say you "could" make a supply for it,but...not for that sort of money.

if i was you i would buy the one youve been offered:)

just saying mate.
