I modded my NTSC Commodore Amiga 500 today. I added a switch to change between NTSC and PAL! No holes in the case since I drilled into the 3D printed holder for the Gotek floppy drive emulator. It looks a little sloppy here but it's inside the floppy drive bay so you can't really see it...
I received a replacement power supply in the mail from them today. I am going to have my technician friend take a look at it and I'm sure we'll make another video. No way I am trusting it with my Amiga without checking first.
So I finally heard back from Amigastore.eu (apparently they watched my video when I sent it to them the second time) and are finally talking about either sending me a replacement or doing a refund. Either way is fine with me. I'm lucky that my Amiga wasn't damaged, but it wasn't. Still not...
Update: I was not able to get to my friend's yet, but I did get the Amiga 500 power supply I ordered from Electoware_PL and that one works completely fine. My Amiga is fine. It's pretty much certain that Amigastore.eu sent me an incorrectly manufactured power supply. So far I have heard nothing...
I'm not sure how soon I'll be able to visit my friend. He lives on the other side of the city. In the meantime, I sent the video to amigastore.eu and they did not even reply. I have heard nothing from their technical support department.
It's a switching power supply so it can do anything from 110 to 220, but regardless, there was no bang. However, I had my technician friend look at it and if this is correct https://allpinouts.org/pinouts/connectors/power_supply/amiga-500-600-1200-power-supply-5-pin/ then they wired the Amiga...
I am afraid if I open the case they will claim I voided the warranty and therefore won't be entitled to my money back. They put an Amigashop.eu sticker across the joint where the two halves of the plastic case go together. For what it's worth, I spent $7 on a nice EU to USA connector and it...
Hi there folks,
I recently got an Amiga 500 from a friend, but it did not include a power supply. My friend showed it working with his vintage power supply with no problems last week. I ordered a new Amiga 500 power supply from Amigastore.eu. I saw several good reviews from them online and...
Hi folks,
I talked about this a little in my welcome posting, but I wanted to show off some Commodores I've been working on. I got a Box of four broken systems and got them all working. I just finished number 3:
This is an original breadbox style C64 with a Commodore 16 keyboard. Well...
