Title: I need someone to build me a power cable
Post by: NOLAfishwater on June 01, 2009, 09:44:23 PM
I need a Y power cable. I took a trip over to ratshack and figured out that I need a straight O connector split into two right angle M's. The battery that I bought has one of those barrel power cables which the O fits into. The cable should be 3' long with the split taking place close to/at the O end that way if I run the t00bes on different shelves I don't have to worry about the split not being wide enough. I will gladly pay someone to do this as I am not going to learn how to solder on this piece of equipment.

specs on M tip:

specs on O <<<didn't work.

I'll have to go back. After testing a few more tips at the house, I have determined that it is probably an  N  tip:
O.D.: 5.5mm. I.D.: 2.5mm

looks like the radio shack O was the wrong size. I have updated my posts. Thinking it is probably the N. Gonna test it out tomorrow.
