Hi everyone

I got my Blast City from sheep_nova. Now I tried to turn it on with a MisterArcade hooked up to it, but no luck.
I tried to power it with 110V but it hast a sticker on the PSU which says 220v and the transformer on the left of the PSU is hooked up. Should I try it with 220/230V?

Check with sheep_nova first. But if it says 220v. Then it generally means that’s what it’s expecting.
 
We are talking, I'm just wanna be sure before hooking it up to 220V. What throws me off is that there is only this little sticker on the bottomunderneath the outlet. What I found strange was that the fan wasn't spinning only wiggling a bit.
 
That's because the fan runs on 12V.

It's a 220V cab. Plug it into a normal outlet.

Also, the step down transformer has multiple taps. It will work on the default setting (which is likely 220V, since it is from China), but you can set it to 230V too. You just need to repin the AMP UP connector.
 
There should be one on the side of the transformer.
 
I hooked it up with 220V today but no luck now it is just dead and not even the red light on the PSU turns on
 
Close the front door ;)
Maybe it's just the security switch on this door.

Theres a kill switch on the main front door and also a on/off under control panel.
If your in the UK the our native 240V is fine
 
So it didn‘t work with 220V at all, with doors closed or open. Now I tried to plug it into my standard 230V and it worked, even with the doors open.

Does anybody know which cables the green/white one is?
