A fresh start

Amiga 500/500+/600/1200 systems have sold in over 7 million units worldwide, an impressive number even by today's standards. However, unlike modern computers, tablets, and smartphones, a considerable number of Amiga systems are still operational over 30 years after being introduced to the public. In proper hands they have a chance of surviving another 30 years. Yet a common failure among Amiga systems is the power supply. This is specifically why we have designed a replacement Amiga PSU. This series of power supplies gives your system a fresh start, minimizing the risk of damage due to an ageing factory power supply.

RetroPower series

The RetroPower PSU series has been introduced to the market as a successor of our Modern and Classic power supply styles. RetroPower PSUs feature a solid gray/black enclosure, with a universal power cable connector and on/off switch. The basic version has a semi-translucent top window with LED illumination, while the OLED version features a digital OLED display with 3 touch buttons to navigate through the options.

Robust and reliable design

The Amiga PSU was designed from scratch as a high-quality replacement for the original Amiga power supply. It contains internal +5V/4.0A, +12V/2.0A, and -12V/0.5A DC switching power modules. The power supply has a sturdy custom-made case with a PMMA top window and a LED indicator.

RetroPower PSU connector

The RetroPower PSU series features a universal DIN7/DIN8 output power connector, shared between the entire series. A device-specific connection cable is included with the power supply. The pinout diagram is made available for testing purposes.

Precision and dedication

The development of our series of Commodore, Amiga, Sinclair, Atari, Coleco, and TI power supplies has been driven by a sense of sentiment for retro-computing, combined with accuracy and dedication in creating electrical equipment to be proud of. It goes without saying, that the electronics has been designed by skilled professionals, thoroughly tested, and improved based on years of feedback from thousands of users. However, we have also put a lot of effort into the visual appearance of our power supplies. We design and manufacture our own enclosures with CNC and injection molding technologies. The LED and OLED panels are carved from PMMA to give a modern appearance to the power supplies. Hundreds of hours of designing and perfecting have been put into these devices, to create not only a safe and robust power supply, but also a satisfying visual improvement to your system.

What else is out there?

The original Amiga power supplies are very hard to get by these days, and often pose a reliability or even safety threat. As for other replacement power supplies, a handful of solutions exist on the market. Yet most of them are DIY-grade, lacking basic quality, electric engineering expertise, and safety features. The vast majority of these power supplies is recognizable by general-purpose plastic enclosures and internal components wired up in a true DIY style. Opening up a few of those power supplies was big motivation for us to design our Commodore C64, C128, Amiga, Atari, ZX Spectrum, Sinclair QL, TI-99/4A, and ColecoVision power supply series.

Safety first

Our Amiga PSU is designed to be safe for the user, and safe for the computer. It's protected from over-current and over-voltage, and fused on both the AC and DC sides. Nevertheless, it's mandatory to say that this is a 120/230V AC power device, which should not be opened, tampered with, or used for anything else than powering an unmodified Amiga computer. It's intended for indoor usage only, the maximum rated current should not be exceeded, and proper ventilation should be ensured. Do not open or tamper with, at the risk or electrical shock and loss of warranty.
