    Hey folks,

    Wondering can anyone help - does anyone have a bunch of spare 0.187 female connectors they could part with (in exchange for some euros ofc)? These are the fellows in question. I kind of need them by this Friday though which might be asking alot I suppose. Sure send me a pm if anyone can help. Thanks!

    Jeez the title made me think you were looking from advice from retro:D

    Might be a shot in the dark but could Maplins be worth a check?

    Maplins defo will have them Andy - and if not I think I do have some, somewhere. I'll reply to the PM shortly :D

    Was in Maplins today off mary street and they had em

    Maplins are rip-off merchants.
    :mad:
    Try Peats first.

    Or buy them on eBay for 1/5th the Maplins price (keyword: 4.8mm spade terminal).

    Yep they are, but if you need something quick and can't and can't wait to dick around on ebay they are the only real one stop shop in dublin.

    Have to laugh at the staff though..they ain't got the foggiest.I like to ask questions just to hear the answer.my mate from work asked for a 3g router the other day for work and your man said that they haven't been invented yet.
    I asked for them to show me any molex connectors they had and 22 gauge wire and this dude showed me rj45 conenctions and cat 5 cable

    On a seperate note..KIKKI...SOLDERING IS NEEDED.

    Radionics in Rialto sell them for nothing
    their website is a nightmare though

    How many are you looking for, I could spare 20-30 of them for you, I think, opened a pack of 100 to rewire the arcade, sure I've a good few left :)
    I'm in Finglas, just beside joe duffy

    I asked for thermal paste remover in maplin before and they tried to sell me a router :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,147 ✭✭✭CathalDublin
