Amstrad PC1512 and PC1640 - Power Supply Replacement
I'm glad to announce an Amstrad PC enthusiast in England is currently testing the ReActiveMicro Universal PSU as a possible replacement option for this rare-ish PC clone. It seems the Amstrad PC1512 and PC1640 systems were sold by Alan Michael Sugar Trading in the UK back in 1987, sold in Germany under the name Schneider, and were also sold in the U.S. under some other names as well. All these Amstrad machines used the display monitor to provide power to the PC body. +12, -12, +5, -5, volts DC - which is the SAME outputs as used by the Apple II systems and what the Universal PSU was designed to replace. Being a modern solution the Universal PSU accepts universal AC supply voltage (100-240v AC / 50-60Hz) unlike older power supplies. There are many Amstrad's out there not being used because the power supply has died. With some luck the ReActiveMicro Universal PSU will help breath some life back in to these old systems.
