Good source for modern Commodore 64/VIC-20 power supplies? Can the same power supply be used for both?

From experience, which are good sources/eBay sellers/etc.? Links, please, too.

Ray Carlsen makes good ones. I bought one of his M64 Dual output units. https://portcommodore.com/rcarlsen/customPS.html
And Kevin 0. (member of our board) sells the Nu-brick : It looks well made and has great reviews : https://forum.vcfed.org/index.php?threads/brand-new-commodore-64-power-supply-the-nu-brick-64.62774/

Im sure there are cheap alternatives but you get what you pay for.

I use the C64 C128 PSU PRO and from there website https://www.c64psu.com/c64psu/78-13...c64_to_c128_adapter-no_thanks/111-version-c64 It works pretty well for me and use it with both c64 and 128 and 1541-II drive as well, it also has a built lights to tell you if it sending to much voltage to the C64 as well as a voltage adjustment for accesories that require the bigger psu like the RAM expansion.

I just use a “saver” from Ray Carlsen. I’ve also got a couple of C64 power supplies that aren’t potted so I’ll may try to replace the questionable regulators or whatever in those.

Nice one, I should have mentioned that. I own one of rays savers for myself as well.
I can also say Ray stands behind his product. There was a minor problem with the wire shielding and he sent me a replacement.
