5.5V 100mA, center positive. If memory serves me correctly.

thanks...
i guess that would knock out the chance of using a 2600 adapter.

I just used a compaq computer power supply cause i needed 5v for the pong unit steady 5v w no ripple makes the paddles not move around the screen by them selfs and i needed 12v dc for the monitor for my pong unit...
you can use any computer power supply on new ones the green wire on the big connector gets gnded to wake power supply up older 286/486 ones come on when you switch the power switch on... I also like the computer power supply cause if it shorts out it can just be unplugged and plugged back in wout damage from quarters rolling around the cabinet..
here is some pics
