PC Engine Duo Adapter...

[goombakid]

So, lovin' the Duo, but worried about the power supply. It's input (like most electronics direct from Japan) is rated 100VAC 50/60Hz, output flows 10VDC 1000mA. It's an NEC branded adapter that came with the console when I got it from eBay.

I've read here that a Sega Genesis 2's adapter, when modified, can be used with the Duo (not the R or RX). I have a Genesis 2, and the adapter is rated 10VDC .85A. My plan was to open up both adapters, desolder the adapter cables and put the Duo's cable in the Genesis 2 adapter (I have a spare one somewhere).

Question is would I have to worry about the lower amperage rating on the Genesis 2 adapter?...well, before I even begin this endeavor, would I have to worry about using a 100VAC rated adapter in a 120VAC socket? On average, I usually play for about 1.5 hours, but I've been known to go around 3+ hours if it's an involved game (RPGs and whatnot).

Thanks all!

Nope, it'll work just fine.
