Using off-brand power supplies with a RamKeeper
Hey everybody,
I have been digging around, trying to find out whether power supplies for
other systems will work with a RamKeeper. It's coaxial, 9.5V 1A that is
required.
I have discovered that the Commodore 16 used the same type of plug (and, in
fact, most RamKeepers shipped with Commodore branded power adapters...!!).
However, I have been getting mixed information. Some people say you can use
a 9V 1A power adapter instead. The Sega Master System had a 9V 1A adapter
that should fit.
So, my question is: how safe would it be to try a 9V 1A power adapter on my
RamKeeper (which should require 9.5V 1A)? Any chance of actually blowing
it? Or will it just not work?
Thanks
Tim
