[Desh]

Here is your connector, search for this number on ebay:  321057538152
I hope this helps!  I am using it on my own rebuilt Duo.

Thank you!  I found those and it lead me to a power supply I ordered.  I'm not super excited since it's from China but what the hell isn't made there anymore?

I would like in on the card sleeve raffle please, especially since it seems that my favorite/most collectable games are naked with out cases. Also, PM sent about the carry case... if its still available that is.

Yeah, I found this also:

And no worries, what I'm getting from Bernie is also likely made in China. I think their defect rates have been improving (as in going down), but it all depends on the brand. Black'n'Decker makes all their electric drills there now and other tools, are the defect rates high ? Nah, they brought their factory production standards with them there I gather, so yeah, it all depends.

BTW, the original Turbo Duo power supply is made in Taiwan, which China says is China, just a rogue separatist entity of an island that must no longer prolong glorious reunification with mainland China under Communist Party rule, so yeah, if you buy that, it too was made in China.

NW, what you are getting from me he actually makes himself.  He gets the parts, and actually assembles/makes the power supplies in small batches.

I can't imagine the parts not having come from China, but that's interesting that he makes them himself. That would explain why his price sucked on it... And actually, that worries me now, I hope he just slapped the Turbo Duo pin on it and a LED light or something as opposed to having designed the circuit. I was hoping this is a professional and complex circuit with regulators, ICs and everything, like what you see inside a power supply for a LCD monitor. I have one that delivers a perfect 12 VDC and it is almost like a small CPU run PCB. It has tons of surface mount caps and resistors, 2 regulators, 6 big aluminum caps, several IC type chips, etc. Surge protection is probably inherent to them...

Anyway, I just hope he was limited to tip choice and that's about it when it comes to this. I wouldn't mind seeing a photo of the PCB, and maybe I should've asked for that before paying you, oh well... The guy could've slapped something cheap in there and just bullshitted the public... $23 is way too much money for just a power supply. It smacks of the opportunistic taking advantage of retro fans that's popular these days...
