🍟 ON TODAY'S MENU: See disclaimer below. In this episode I attempt to solve one of the biggest Commodore 64 conundrums; the power supply brick. They're either dangerous, expensive, hard to make, or ugly... until now. My plug and play $30 outcome using no power tools uses only 12.3% of the cable's rated potential and has been up for some time now and I'll be testing the new PSU regularly, reporting any changes here (none so far).

🕹️ I bet you can't count the number of naughty jokes in this video. Seriously though, I'll be cutting back on that in all future videos. It just doesn't fit. (that's what she said.)

UPDATE
🕹 I have been testing it with a load since. I tested it unloaded in the video to make sure there were no major issues before plugging in. It has been running one week with load and no problems! **The extension cord that I used is rated as follows:
- 13 amperes (I believe I am drawing 3A or 23%)
- 125 volts (I believe I am drawing 14V or 11%)
- 1625 watts (I believe I am drawing 42W or 3%)
- UL listed
- 16 Gauge
- Label photos: https://goo.gl/3Ygdti
- Therefore as an average I am using just 12.3% of the cord's rated potential. Your results may vary of course.

OBLIGATORY DISCLAIMER (1/28/18)
🕹️ I am not an electrical engineer or expert. This unit has not been certified or tested to codes or standards (although it uses 4 branded, rated, certified parts from trusted retailers.) Do not try this at home. If you do try this it is at your own risk. I am not responsible for your decision to copy this idea or any damages or outcomes of that action. Please see description where I really drill into the safety facts of this idea. Kthxbai.
