Apple II power supply with replica 1?

[bdr529]

Hi,
I'm new here, so excuse me if this has been discussed before. I have a spare Apple II power supply and was wondering if it could be modified to be used with the replica 1. I think it will work, but I'm curious to know if anyone has done it already. Thanks.

Welcome to the forum Rich. I've done it. It requires that you cut the connector off of the Apple II power supply. If you are going to use a pc ps/2 keyboard you only need 5V and ground (GND). I have to check but it is either red or orange is 5V and black is GND. There are 5V and GND holes on the board next to the ps/2 connector to solder the wires to, or directly to the power supply on the replica. If you plan to use an Apple II keyboard you need -12V and I don't know which color is -12V offhand but any apple II forum will know.
