Ok guys, i have finally tested (5 months!)my New "international" heavy duty 500/600/1200 psu's to the point they are ready to go out in the world. I have made 3 different labels for them.They run on any input from 100 to 240vac.
I can ship these anywhere in the world(erm.. except nigeria lol)
Specs as follows:

This homebrew power supply project was born out of my need for a more powerful true universal 120v/240v 50/60hz power supply that could replace our aging/failing commodore bricks.I wanted a power supply that was much smaller, completely quiet, had a lighted switch so you could tell when it was actually on,even when unplugged from the computer, more powerful than the original,and works on any input voltage from 100 to 240vac without switching anything! A true International switchmode PSU that will work in any country.
This is a brand new off the shelf UL/CE power supply i found and modified with a lighted green switch and new 5 pin square din connector. Unfortunately the din connectors are so hard to find i only managed to source 15 of them and have built 15 complete power supplies.Technically since i modded it,it would no longer be considered UL/CE...I state this so there is no confusion.

APOWER Desktop Amiga Power Supply Features:
Up to 7amps on the 5v rail (original dsp-A500 is 4.5 amps)
1.5amps on the +12 rail (original dsp-A500 is 1 amp)
.3 Amps onthe -12 rail (original dsp-A500 is .1 amp)
Overload Protection
Short protection
Switchmode power supply
Completely silent with a giant heatsink nearly the full length internally
Runs on any input voltage from 100 to 240VAC - AutoSensing so no switches to change!
Lighted Switch (finally!)
Built By a amiga hardware nut for himself and other amiga nuts
About half the size of the original Commodore one making it much more portable
Includes power cord for 110VAC (5ft long) 1.5 meters
Output cable is (3.5ft long) 1.067 meters
Power Supply measures approx. (5" x 3" x 1.5" thick) 127mm x76mm x 38mm
Powerfull enough to run any desktop expansions including blizzard PPC w/Bvision
Tested for 5+ months on a variety of machines: Amiga 500 w/csa derringer 030/50 and gvp Anet ethernet sidecar,A600 with 2M ram expansion and internal cdrom,Several A1200's-Blizzard 030/50,Dkb 030/40 w/scsi HD, apollo 040/40,blizzard 060 128MB ram,internal cdrom,pcmcia ethernet,dual floppies and also a 1200 with the blizzard ppc 060/50 603/240 w/bvision gfx card in a desktop case.
I have run these fully loaded 24/7 in hot texas temperatures over the summer with no problem.Some of our summer temps resemble that of australia and other places where heat is a problem for electronics.I feel I have created a resilient and robust power supply that should handle most situations.

I have built 15 of these.Anyone wanting one of these on A.org can buy one for $35+shipping..just PM me
Shipping inside the usa is $7.62 , canada is $11.45 ,mexico $11.45, all other countries 14.00 (all shipping costs in USD)
I also have these listed on ebay at http://shop.ebay.com/m3ch/m.html?_nk...&_trksid=p3686

If ANYONE knows where i can get more square 5pin din connectors,please tell me!!

Mike

Someone on ebay is selling new A500/600/1200 power supplies that are tiny in comparison to the original brick PSU for the Amiga. Priced at £24.57 ($38) these may be just what your looking for if your old Amiga PSU is on the way out...

Amiga A500/600/1200 New PSU

(it's our very own Mechy... )

[Karlos]

Are they switched mode?

-edit-

Yep, it seems so. No big ass transformers then

[golem]

Ordered one. These look fantastic.

[runequester]

That is pretty awesome

Excellent find! I just ordered one for my 1200!

Mechy himself started his own thread yesterday on this. Why are we talking about it in a new thread created a day later by someone else? I'm beginning to think some people just love the sound of their own keystrokes.

Oooh... pardon me...

For a start I didn't notice Mechys thread on here and was only browsing through ebay when I discovered the add.

It would also seem from other folks responses here that they didn't notice Mechys thread either, and judging by the results from this thread Mechy has just about sold out of these power supplies now...

So whatever you have to say doesn't matter one bit, end result Mechy got some sales and folk who have purchased these PSUs seem quite happy...

Seems as if what I said *did* matter cheeky monkey, as behold: we have witnessed the power of thread merge.

@Franko - it's not about "stealing thunder"... was very cool you pointed the auction out. Was just surprised that you hadn't caught the original thread.
