    Apple IIc TEARDOWN & MacEffects Clear Case REVIEW [VIDEO]

    You are correct, I should have been more specific! Man, after watching your struggles with the speaker I'm a bit wary now to be honest. I think I may try and give the donor case and the replacement clear case some time in the hottest part of the house for a while before I give it a shot.

    Apple IIc TEARDOWN & MacEffects Clear Case REVIEW [VIDEO]

    I'm going to admit I've been waiting to put my case together until JDW posted his video.

    SIMCheck II Exploration

    I appreciate the suggestions, I'll get a bundle ordered tomorrow. I've got my fingers crossed you're able to connect with someone who could help. I'm curious what happened to the company and their IP, seems like another manufacturer would be interested in their technology. Maybe not, maybe...

    SIMCheck II Exploration

    I'd be happy to, I don't have an EEPROM programmer however. I've been looking for an excuse to buy one so if you have any suggestions I'm all ears. If that's a little too OT for this discussion, I'd appreciate a PM. It't a shame the company was not able stay afloat after the passing of their...

    SIMCheck II Exploration

    Excellent write up. Thank you for the ROM dump, I just checked my unit hoping I might have 1.55 to contribute but mine is an older revision 1.40.

    Mine is hard wired to the unit or is at least plugged in at the inside, I've never opened the case.. Specifications are 9VDC @ 1 amp. Center positive.

    Reason Lisa Mouse is So Expensive?

    So glad a later mouse will work. That's definitely the plan use a 128/512/Plus mouse until a Lisa mouse finds me.

    Reason Lisa Mouse is So Expensive?

    Having recently acquired a Lisa 2, without the mouse, I'm looking for one as well. I'm afraid I'll be putting out $500 for one. This computer has been a roller coaster of emotions. Finding one was a huge joy, learning what it's going to cost to get running and be complete is a bit shocking.

    7100 L2 Cache SIMM

    I remember there being a thread over on the MLA talking about recreating them, I don't think it ever got anywhere past the discussion phase though. Too bad, I would be interested in several for my x100 machines.

    LCIII C22 polarity

    You may be right, I'm using 25V Kyocera AVX caps. Maybe the higher rated voltage has something to do with it. https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/KYOCERA-AVX/TCJE476M025R0050E?qs=d0WKAl%252BL4KakoCbCQXOB2w==

    LCIII C22 polarity

    Was able to test the TDK power supply voltages at the connector plugged into the logic board with the LC III turned on earlier today. +12, +5 and -5 all looked good with C22 orientated per the silkscreen. I'll need to build a loopback adapter and test out the ports next time I'm in front of...

    LCIII C22 polarity

    That computer has a TDK power supply. It's of course stuck back in storage, I'm going to pull it out next time I'm over there and test the -5V rail.

    LCIII C22 polarity

    That's interesting I recently recapped a LCIII with tantalums and followed the factory silkscreen for capacitor orientation including C22. I haven't done a lot of testing with it since recap but was able to get a healthy chime, video, cursor and flashing question mark. I seem to remember...

    Interesting Mod/Bodge to A LC III

    Neat! Thanks for the link YMK, and the additional insight everyone else. Hoping that everything will survive a trip through the ultrasonic. If not, at least I have some pictures to replicate where the wires were tacked.
