Sorry, I can't help you with current ratings but I can tell you that
within the last two months or so I received a surplus electronics
catalog that had new A1000 power supplies in it.

I can't put my hands on the catalog right now but I think it was
Brigar Electronics 607-723-3111. They can also be reached via e-mail
at BRIGAR2@aol.com.  The catalog did not mention the Amiga but it had
a photo with the part number clearly visible which  is the same part
number they used in the catalog, 130569SXD.  The part number, photo
and description all match the power supply in my A1000 which is why I
remember.  I know the price was under $20, I think was $12.95 but I'm
not sure.  The catalog may have even had the current ratings of the
power supply, if I find that information I'll post it.

You didn't say why you needed this information.  If it's to find a
suitable replacement because the supply in you 1000 just went bad I
thought you might like to know you could still find an exact
replacement.

Hope this helps,
John
