CHILDMORY AC Power Supply AC Adapter Plug Cord for Atari 2600 System Console US Plug

Good fit

Perfect fit and works flawlessly. Not too heavy which is great don’t doesn’t droop in the wall socket.

It's perfectly fine to use a modern switching power supply on an old Atari. In those days, switching power supplies were the bleeding edge, reserved for only expensive and elaborate systems. So, they used a linear power supply, which is what made the brick so heavy.This, though, is a few steps beyond reasonable cost reduction. It would barely pass as a cell phone adapter! Virtually no filtering, no quality whatsoever. Even the under-spec board they mount in the aesthetic giant housing is not fully populated. Cheaped out down to the bone.Better off clipping the lead off this and looking for a higher quality 9-volt DC power supply. About all it's good for is the unusual jack which was used on the Atari 2600. That's what I'll be using it for... instant E-waste with the rest of it. It ain't worth blowing up a $200+ antique console with a $10 power brick.

Worked just as I was hoping

The plug works great and so far without a problem, however, it is very light. I was used to having the very heavy AC blocks from the orginal Nintendos, etc, so itwas concerning how light it was when I opened the package. So far it hasn't cause us any problem.

This works perfectly and is much closer to in specification than many of the original supplies. It is actually within half a volt of 9 even with no load.

Good quality, good price

I can’t tell if Atari is turning on or not there is no indicator light
