People who plug the wrong power in

Honestly who does this, I in no way did this to my Japanese dreamcast at 1.30am this morning… 🤦‍♂️

Same as I no way connected my HK Dreamcast SCART to my Supergun output with a SCART coupler. Supergun won. Twenty years later still haven't a clue what I was thinking or trying to achieve! 🤣

Although not power related. I in no way forgot to lock the service door on my Astro while sat in front of it.

The door did not then fall out and do me a physical discourtesy.

It is only one capacitor the the primary side from the PSU. Swap it for another 100uF 200V and you should be fine

UK PSU works great

If you swap the capacitor for an 100uF 400V it could work with mains voltage (~230V). I haven't tested myself.

Ouch to all. I use a pico in my dreamcast, maybe worth a thought.

I plugged the wrong power into my finger once when messing around with a magnet and linearity coil.
