Was just conversing with another fellow about these connectors for an old HP
counter. He found an alternative solution to work in a pinch:
Any ideas what the connector he's using is? It looks like some kind of
adapter on an IEC plug. fits in the old connector looks like it was intended
as shroud for some sort of
non-solder or crimp style pins.
I'd wondered about using Molex-style pins in home-made housing, but I
couldn't think of an easy way to get strain-relief on the cable.
I shall look at various IEC connectors and see if I can find one that can
be modified to fit.
