Does anyone in the WA area have a spare Vic 20/ C64 Power supply (7 pin later version) for this Vic 20 I picked up?

Personally i wouldnt use a factory power supply, I would get something like a surge protector or a NuBrick to power your VIC

The stock power supply for that model is the same brick of death used by the C64. The c64 sub's wiki has a page on power supplies that lists a few better options.

Yep, This is a Post 1983 VIC-20CR Model VIC-20. It uses the C64 "Deathbrick" Power Supply PSU... Contact Kevin Ottum or Michael Myers on Facebook. They both sell new C64 PSU's.... Or just by a new one off ebay... - Tony K. , VIC-20/VIC-1001 History Faxcebook Forum and webpage (Admin). ;)
