I don't think the voltage will be a problem, but the amperage looks a
little low on that supply.

Atari supplied power supplies rated between 1.7A and a whopping 5.6A for
the 400.

The AC VIC-20 power supply I have is rated at 3A.

I don't know what the actual requirements of the systems are, but I'd be a
little wary of using a 780mA power supply.
