    Default Need help identifying a Commodore power supply...

    I received this in a box filled with primarily Atari stuff that I purchased at a garage sale. It doesn't appear to fit any of the Commodore systems I currently own.

    I was able to find this auction on eBay, which looks to be identical to the item I have, and identifies it as a Commodore Plus/4 power supply, but the images in the Commodore Plus/4 entry on Wikipedia depict a system with a circular power jack, and a significantly different power supply design.

    Any ideas?

    It appears to be for the Commodore Plus/4. I'll post links with pictures.

    Several Commodore computers had different revisions with changes to the power connector made, I guess this is one of them. The Vic 20 is another one.
