replacement power supply

[p0werp0p]

I saw a note on VSE (www.vintagesynth.com/misc/fusion.php?comments_page=3#comments_anchor) where it looks like someone replaced their power supply with a Flex ATX unit. Has anyone tried this?

The Fusion uses the same PSU, display dimmer & inverter parts as the Akai MPC 5000 you can get them from Akai

Using a computer ATX power supply can work

The ATX power supply could be placed outside of the Fusion using a PC connector installed in the Fusion thus eliminating heat from the power supply, I mentioned this some place else awhile back, but can't find the post it would just be a matter of connecting the wires from an old non working Fusion power supply to a mating AT/ATX power supply connector

A small 150 0r 200 watt PC power supply could be used in this way with the power supply being outside of the Fusion
The Fusion would only pull what power it needs from the power supply and you would not need a AC to DC adapter.

It looks like the Fusion can work with an ATX PC power supply. You only need the -16V for the original display, but if you replace with this one www.mpja.com/LCD-Display-240-X-1 ... /31003+OP/# you do not need the -16V anymore, -12V could do the trick in place of the -16V also.

Anybody have an old non working Fusion PSU they can send to me, I'll use it to make up an AT/ATX power supply adapter cable.
actually I won't need the PSU, just clip the wires off at the PSU and mail them to me.
PM me if you have one I can use

Thanks, Jesse
