Which System 80 power supply boards are interchangeable
System 80 and 80A power supplies swap freely. The 80B supply is a different, 5 V-only design that won't fit earlier games; it matches the later System 3 supply except that 80B uses .156" connectors. Replacement 80/80A supplies are sold with the ground fix already built in.
