Looking to get GPO output connectors and we can see CaseETC sell them but can only find one place in the UK that does them... unfortunately to crimp the wire you need a tool that costs 220 USD!!!
any idea what these things are called so that we can search a little easier? or if you know where they sell them in the uk that would be a lot better...
If not do you sell them so if I bought a load of stuff you could send me 4/order.. (only need three because if you chop them in half you have 2 ends therefore 8 GPOs
)
If you could sell them or point me in the right direction that would be great... ta

Hey kaz, I usually just salvage them off old cases (AT and such). If you come up totally empty, let me know, I'll lob a few your way.

Well, I have to agree with linear, go rape and pillage some old cases
OR
get your self some female strip headers and heat shrink tubing. Thats what we generaly use here when we need some GPOs... I'll try to find some links for you.

I got a few of the caseetc ones, they have a small "hump" on the top but that doesnt matter, you can sand it off or leave it and take a minute risk
