Power Adapters.

[Peder Johnsen]

Here in Norway the outlets are different to the ones in the UK.
Since I am moving to Wales and will also bring all my SEGA stuff with me offcourse (though it has to wait a while, not really sure how I will get it over yet either)
I wondering if the UK power adapter would work with my consoles.

On the adapter I got it says:
Input: 220V~50Hz
Output: 10V.-.-.0.5A


I gonna be buying at least one more power base I and II when I am in the UK (maybe try and get boxed versions) so I will get 2 power adapters there.
So if those would work with the consoles I allready got that would be great .


Also, what is a boxed SMS II worth? (Perfect condition)
And same with a normale boxed SMS I? (Perfect condition)

(I guess this might have changed when I will be buying some because its still a while till I can start buying sega stuff again...

Also I guess I gonna have to start trading games now to get more games even though I dont want to trade away my spare ones .

Master system and megadrive have all the power conversion done in the power supply - the consoles all use the same voltage no matter what region they are from. So yes UK power supplies will power them fine.

Ok great ;D.

Had to be sure so I dont "blow up" any of my consoles

Other consoles have built in power converters, and just have a simple standard lead to plug in the mains - dreamcast, saturn etc. If you look at the bottom of such consoles you should find they accept 220-240v.

Are you really sure you want to move to Wales? it has good points like beaches and such, but bad points like a lack of decent jobs.

[Peder Johnsen]

Yeah I am sure.

Because my Girlfriend lives there .
And collecting sega master system in Norway is not really cheap! hehe. (Though that aint the reason).

Try and find a 9V 1A power supply like those for Megadrive 1, its the most versatile power supply around, I have some and they are great, power LOTS of retro consoles, and if the tip is different you can just make a little adaptor cable really easy..
