RepairBox Power Input Jack for Super NES (SNES)

Pros & Cons
Pros
- ✓ Direct-fit replacement for the DC power jack on original first-generation US SNES boards
- ✓ Keeps your existing SNES AC adapter, so there is no new power supply to source
- ✓ Targets the exact fault behind intermittent or dead power on an original Super Nintendo
- ✓ Console-specific SKU from RepairBox, not a generic barrel jack you have to match
Cons
- ✗ Soldering required, so it is not a plug-in repair for a first-time fixer
- ✗ Fits only the original first-generation US SNES, not later revisions or non-US units
- ✗ No help if the real fault is elsewhere, such as the fuse or voltage regulator
- ✗ No solder, tools, or instructions listed as included with the part
Manufacturer description
