|  Plus/4 Power Supply
Could someone tell me what the Plus/4 power supply looks like.
I've got about three different ones now and I don't know which one I should be using.
I never had a Plus/4 at the time, although I do recall seeing and playing on one.
I can't say I was that interested in looking at the power supply when I was playing Icicle Works, so I guess I'm pretty clueless in this department. 
Could someone post a picture or give me a description of the Plus//4 power supply?
I've got a grey one that looks similar to that of a Commodore 64 power supply, I've got a small one which looks simialr to the correct Commodore 16 version and I've got a black one with grooves in it, similar to the grooves at the top of the Plus/4 keyboard.
If I had to take a guess I'd think that the last one was correct but I'm not sure.
Cheers.

There were at least two official versions of the Plus/4 PSU. That Ebay link shows one of them, you can see the other at Ebay item 290125208521.

The Plus/4 power supplies that I have seen have all been black "bricks" with a square connector to mate to the Plus/4. The square connector has 4 pins, one in each corner.
If you have a round power connector on your Plus/4 then you can use a C64 power supply.
BUT if you have a power supply with 5 pins in the square connector, that's for C128 or Amiga. Do not use on a Plus/4.
