Title: UA-5 M tip size?
Post by: MPB on October 24, 2006, 03:52:29 AM

I am trying to buy an M tip for the UA-5 battery cable in Australia but they don't identify them with letters at the shop I went to.

Does anyone know the "size" of the M tip so I can get the correct fitting one.

A few different tips may fit snuggly but I want to ensure I get the correct one.

Thanks

He was looking for the size of the tip, since they don't indentify adataplugs by letters over there.

A just for reference, the B adaptaplug is what you use on the battery end (if you're using wal-mart batteries)

According to the Radio Shack webpage for the Adaptaplug M (http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062435&cp=&origkw=adaptaplug&kw=adaptaplug&parentPage=search), it's O.D.: 5.5mm. I.D.: 2.1mm.

Thanks Brian & for the record the B tip is O.D. : 4.0mm, I.D. : 1.7mm
