Power switch cable for ZX Spectrum with LED

• Inline switch cable, fits between the UK1400 PSU and Spectrum power socket
• Saves wear and tear and tedious insert/remove cycles.
• Green LED, useful as the Spectrum16/48 has no power indicator
• Good quality 20AWG cable.
• 2.1mm pin / 5.5mm outer diameter socket and plug
• Correctly switches the positive supply - most generic cables will switch the negative side because of the unusual polarity used by the Spectrum
• Suitable for Spectrum 16 / 48/ 128 Toastrack and 128 +2 (Grey case model)
• Please note: A few early Spectrum PSUs have a 5.00mm diameter plug -this will be too loose for the socket on this cable. It's quite difficult to judge by eye, but you can refer to this diagram for assistance.

SMART Card V3.1 Spectrum Interface

The SMART Card is a game loader / kempston compatible joystick interface aimed at Spectrum users who want a simple, plug and play method of loading games quickly from micro SD Card. Upon power up, you are presented with a list of games on your SD Card from which you can select using the joystick or keys. The .sna and .tap files found on spectrumcomputing.co.uk, www.worldofspectrum.org and other websites are supported.

The SMART Card also has extra features such as its diagnostic ROM which can be used to identify bad RAM chips etc. There's also a reset switch and NMI button which allows pokes to be entered, snapshots to be saved, code in RAM to be disassembled etc.

The V3 SMART Card supports 128K games as well as 48K (this necessitated a hardware update so the new ROMs are not compatible with previous versions of the SMART Card unfortunately). It is supplied ready to go, all you need extra is a micro SD card with some games on it - More info and a FAQ can be found here. Manuals etc can be found in the project archive. 

As with my other modules, I make these by hand as time allows so supply is always going to be limited. Drop me a line if you'd like a notification when I add stock.

A simple external ROM board which can be handy for running diagnostics etc. Features:

• Holds four 16K ROMs, selectable with DIP Switches
