How can you tell if you have a 10V or 5V neo? What are the differences? (besides the powersupply) any logos/labels/special serial numbers etc?

I thought the US Systems have 2 seperate diff codes for different power supplies?

Not all US systems are 5v right?

Only low serial # systems have the 5V power input.

There is a good chance that the PSU you need is a 5V.I have rarely if @ all seen anyone searching for the 10V ones.Also you would be doing no harm to your NGH System if you were to try out the 5V model 1st anyway..

Hi!
Look at the label on the bottom of your Neo. It will say USE PRO POW X AC Adaptor only. If it read

Pro Pow Use 5V3A
Pro Pow E Use 9V1.2A
Pro Pow 3 Use 10V1A

All positive tip.

Yeah, it says to use Pro Pow. So basically I need a 5v 3a model I believe w/ 120v input.

GameChoice.hk.com has 5v3a w 110v input. Would this cause damage? What is the difference there? They claim its SNK Authentic as well.
