Really cool bit of kit, It can run two Commodore Amiga's at the same time. Supports the A500, A500+, A600, CD32 and A590.

Bought one of these Duo PSUs a while back, except I purchased direct from their website, ended up being cheaper than Ebay and other sites.
I grabbed the Duo+ version which has dedicated on/off switch for each Amiga output as well as the main power switch and voltage adjustment. It's also 65W instead of 55W.
At present they are 100Euro, so 25euro more than the one you're showing off.
Just added your video to our product page :-)
thanks so much added it to desc
@@Djformula Thank you!!
It was very much the achilles heel of many Amigas, I remember my A1200 went through a couple of PSU bricks in the span of 6 years.
incredible the size of those old psu's. like bricks. that new psu is a massive improvement..
It looks like CZcams held my comment for review because I included an eBay link for the US version of the power supply. The other thing I'd mentioned was that you might want to include the 1200 in your list of supported machines in the video description. Great video!
will do thanks for letting me know. I will try to find usa link
This will really benefit you Ravi djing with two Amigas .. looks a really nice power supply light small. Read in comments that it can’t power one machine at a time guess unplug the one your not using .. Also nice to power others machines
Definitely seems a nice alternative from the brick .. I would miss the sound of the old one turning off the Amiga when contacted to a stereo you hear interference either the hard drive or sound if playing
Hope all is well Great review Ravi
1:14 exactly how my power supplies looked!
Great find Ravi 👍
Cheers simon its so useful!
Nice find, Ravi! Looks like right around 100 bucks US for this not counting shipping...pricey, but no way you could buy two new ones for that price i'd wager.
Did not realise CZcams check links?
Just purchased one of these , but a little disappointed that there is no switch to select which Amiga to power on as I do not want them both on at same time, and even more disappointed now that I just read a comment on here that there is another version the plus which has 65w instead of 50W and also a switch to select which Amiga to power on. Wish I had checked this review and comments before I purchased. Has anyone managed to fit a switch on this version?
The Ravi Legend returns!
Davinci Resolve inspired me to take it up again. Its so easy and quick
Great review thanks, Ravi. Does it have one power switch for both machines or can you turn them on separately?
i think its just the one switch unless there are further ways to use it I am missing
@@Djformula Thanks, Ravi! Good to know. Kinda a shame though because I rarely want my Amigas on at the same time. Totally makes sense for your DJing use case though.
I really need to get one of those. Would it also power the C64 or do I need a different psu all together?
Think need different for c64
Hey, Ravi. Do you know if this can power a Vampyr and other add-ons that require more power draw?
I am not sure about that might be on a spec sheet or something
You're welcome :)
Teardown?
I dont dare open it lol
I think you meant A570, not A590. A590 round connector, A570 has a square connector... EDIT: Oh right, can do both. :)
Expected 2 girls 1 cup, disappointed 👭☕😢
hahah :P my misleading titles
Someone's mind is in the gutter!
