What is Refurbished?

Each Commodore Amiga 500 + (PLUS) mainboard is professionally recapped and deep cleaned using a Ultrasonic cleaner, bathed using deionised water and professional grade PCB/Flux cleaning solution. Once completed it is dried and a full diagnostic test is completed. Each unit is thoroughly inspected make sure the Amiga 500 + (PLUS) worked as it did when it first came from the factory back in the 1980’s.

Case and keyboard is stripped and cleaned but due to age may show signs of use and age.

 

What is Ultrasonic cleaning?

Ultrasonic cleaning is a process that uses ultrasound (usually from 20–40 kHz) to agitate a fluid, this fluid is made up for this specific job which is to clean and remove any flux left over from recapping. We use deionised water (deionized depending where your from) and professional grade PCB cleaner.
