GET READY FOR "2 in 1" COMBO C64 & 1541-II PSU

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! The 1541-II PSU is big, heavy and can fail too so why not to embed this into the new C64 PSU?

Our C64 PSU "2-in-1" is modern, replacement power supply unit for Commodore C64 (VIC20) a& 1541-II FDD (supports 1581 FDD too). Provides stable filtered 5VDC (up to 2.0A) by industrial grade AC/DC power supply and full 9VAC (1.1A) by classic heavy duty linear transformer unit. In addition it can deliver extra power to 1541-II unit (1A 5VDC and 0.5A 12VDC) to power the FDD at the same time. 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.
