Which one do you need? There are 2 types...

One is like the C64 power pack and the other is a 9v pack with a 2 pin connector.

Let me dig at home. I think I just threw one of those out last week when cleaning the shop. If I still have it you can have it for shipping cost.

Looks like I tossed it with the box. :(

I do have an extra C64 one in a box in storage if that will work for you.

i think the C64 pack will work on a VIC-20, check voltages to be sure.

It's +5v DC and 9v AC output on the C64.

I'll go out to the shop and see if the C64 supply I have on the bench will work with that version of the VIC20. I haven't scrapped out that VIC20 yet.

Ah, well you never said that now... you'll need to source a power supply here unless you fancy using a stepdown on one from the US. I think a C64 supply will work fine on the Vic20, but I'm not 100% certain. My Vic20 is a 2 pin job anyhow, so I can't mix and match. Post something on the boards at Lemon64 and you might find someone closer to help...

I'm in the USA. Everything here was fixed voltage input and you'll need a stepper. Plus it would be expensive to ship a chunk of iron and copper (transformer) overseas.
