Looking for a JST SPH-004T-P0.5S crimp socket but Farnell charge €20 minimum

Hi all. I'm looking for a JST SPH-004T-P0.5S crimp sockets. I know that Farnell have them but because I don't have a trade account, I'd be forced to buy €20 worth of stuff so would anyone have an alternative? I've already called maplin in Derry and they don't seem to have anything JST related so I'm sort of stuck now. So are there any good alternatives to Farnell? Or word arounds to the €20 minimum thing?

How many do you need?

I don't have the JST catalog infront of me, are you looking for the metal crimp terminal that goes inside or the plastic bit that holds them?

I usually but these from radionics. If you only need a few i'll see what I have here.

Thanks. I have the plastic housing, I just need the metal crimp terminal. To account for any potential crimping mistakes, I'd need around 50 crimp sockets.

An example of the terminal can be found here: http://ie.farnell.com/jst-japan-solderless-terminals/sph-004t-p0-5s/crimp-socket-ph-28-32awg-tin/dp/1830762#accessories

I had a look at Radionics myself, I think they only have the SPH-002, not the SPH-004 version so if you got them from Radionics, I'd assume they're SPH-002 (which I have an abudance of).

Yea they don't have the "ph" crimp terminal specified on the JST website, but they do have a JST crimp terminal that works grand, I'll try find the RS number on Monday.

RS 353 1276 should work fine with the PH housings, that's what i always use, never any issue.
