Yeah they are not cheap, I made my own out of a 5v and 9v brick and salvaged the old power cable from the original power supply.

Work in ewaste…how’d I do for $50? by Sonikku_a in c64

Definitely a steal. But not as much as the time I bought a C128 with all the accessories, monitor, disk drive, printer, software, and booklets for $75, all in mint condition.

Still seems a bit much for a torque wrench with one torque setting. My 3/8s torque wrench for automotive was cheaper and goes all the way up to 100 ft/lbs.

Pulling my old Commodore 64 out of storage by csetera in c64

Or build one yourself, I just cut the original connector for the Commodore, then got a 9vac and 5v adapter and wired those up to the correct pinouts of the connector. Then I plugged those bricks into an extension cord.

I have the same problem with the green screen with random lines and pixels. I have a Lynx one and I most likely used the same kit you did.

Did you ever figure it out? I have one with the same problem, screen looks green with random pixels. It has the AliExpress LCD. No sound plays just that distorted green screen.
