I learned about these neat USB boards. I think I will use one in 9V mode for the Atari 7800 as an alternative means of powering it. It might fit in one of the existing cutouts.

    This is great. Even just soldering on a barrel jack and shrink tubing the whole thing would be a massive improvement.

    All the old Power Supplies from the 90s and earlier made power really inefficiently and their failure modes can be… bad

    Putting a GOOD USB-C charger onto these old systems is an elegant solution!
