Thanks for looking at our Sinclair ZX81 computer – Refurbished and Upgraded to 32K RAM and HRG (Hi Res Graphics) Ready!

Issue 1 Board

ZX81-ACED-RDR-024-IMG_4382We’ve performed the following work on this little beast:

  • Replaced the paltry 1K memory with a 32K SRAM chip using a custom PCB – now the ZX-81 has 32K RAM internally! No more RAM pack wobble – and you get to use hires graphics (HRG) as the custom PCB also enables that. You can also disable the HRG8 function with the new revision of our PCB by removing the jumper.
  • All electrolytic capacitors have been tested to make sure that the ZX-81 has a stable power supply.
  • The insides of the RF modulator have been swapped out for another custom PCB that gives the ZX-81 excellent composite video output and produces the needed back porch to allow the ZX81 to give a crystal clear picture on modern TV’s – and it uses the same socket as the RF modulator used to so that we don’t have to modify the case at all.
  • Keyboard membrane replaced and all keys on keyboard tested to ensure fully working.
  • Power socket was loose so it’s also been replaced
  • Comes with its original Sinclair ZX-81 power supply. The power supply has also had its electrolytic capacitors tested.

ZX81-ACED-RDR-024-IMG_4385ZX81-ACED-RDR-024-IMG_4383All in all, this is a well upgraded, refurbished Sinclair ZX-81 computer with a case which is very tidy.  There are some marks and writing on the case (see pictures).

The little man even has new rubber feet to replace the old stinky shoes he used to have!
