The pins for these "BERG" harmonica style
connectors (we used them *way
back* for DLV11J and other connections) can still be found at
Mouser. They're a bit pricey though - about $.25 per pin in large
quantities. Mouser's part number is 649-47712-000.
I ordered a few to test with my crimper - They don't do freebies on
this part. :-( Hopefully they will fit. The drawing looks like
the ones I used to use.
I found something that looks similar in the Digi-Key
catalog (e.g.
WM2555-ND) which sells for about $.10 each in thousands...
Hmm... not sure if those fit the housings or not. Given the cost of
a crimp tool, though, the parts at Mouser look quite attractive.
I was contemplating buying 500 or 1000 pins if these work out.
Thanks for the tip.
