WTB: Famicom Disk System AC Adapter. (Found, sorta)

[Ancient Flounder]

After doing some more research, I realized that I need an AC adapter that is designed to work with the FDS. I have one laying around that might work, but I don't want to take the chance of blowing it out.

If you got one for cheap, hit me up. Thanks.

Oohh, good luck with that. Took me 2 years to find one. Very rare.

FYI, a standard famicom AC adapter also works.

Maybe it works, but they are not the same.

Normal - Disk

110V - 100V
18VA - 9VA
DC10V 850mA - DC9V 400mA

The thing with those is that the tip needs to be changed to negative. Otherwise, the FDS really will go *bomb*.

Being off a volt is no big deal, and the system will only draw the current it needs. As long as you find an adapter with the correct polarity, you're golden.

Well, I gave the other AC adapter I had a shot and it works fine. The adapter itself doesn't run hot and neither does the FDS itself. So, I think I should be good with that. Less moolah to spend on an adapter, which can in turn go to getting more Fami games.

Thanks for the info that was given by all.

I managed to find a universal adapter that works fine with the FDS.

Normal - Disk


DC10V 850mA - DC9V 400mA

Just about any universal will meet these requirements.
