I guess they never miss huh <:huh:527482704191815681>
Do you have an extra PSU around?
Who doesn't?
Me
Useless and bluepilled
I can get one on Amazon in 4 hours, and I replaced my old one for not being good enough.
Actually no, this previous one got put in gfs build
But hey, some people are hoarders. It's worth asking.
Once you realise what shit you can do with a 5v/12v psu. it's worth to buy small batch from mister chong.
At least imo
Does anyone have any specific USB A and Mini B connectors to recommend on AliExpress?
I need some for some custom cable projects, but I don't know which to buy. There's a lot of weird formations on many of them.
What do you mean by different formation?
He means probly Raw connectors
@NC no but i do have site for you https://lcsc.com/products/USB-Connectors_369.html
As nice as these options look, I am only more lost.
Hahhaha
I think I'm good now.
Not sure if I should get a 4 or 5-contact male mini B, though.
5th pin is used rarely on usb devices
That's only used for identification or something, right?
I'm just looking to make some custom USB cables for my keyboard and other devices.
Its more like "special usecases" but yeah you wont need it
Shipping cost doesn't seem worth it on LCSC. At least, not for the quantity of products I'll be buying.
Seemed kinda obvious. I was more thinking of male connectors..
Though, I do think there is a new user coupon somewhere.
$4.67 for shipping after adding just 10 mini B connectors.
I have to buy $15+ in items too, or there's an extra charge.
So keep that in mind
I won't need that tech for my use cases, so it should be fine.
You don't have to buy at lsc. Just use it as comparison if you prefer ali vendors.
Problem is on both Ali and BasedGood, nobody sells males.
It's all females from what I saw.
Oh, I was confused.
I see my error now.
I though the males were pre-snapped/glued. I was looking for ones without the plastic housings.
Tried local hardware dealers ?
There may be a Fry's or Radioshack, not sure. I think the ones near me have closed.
I don't want to overpay and use up gas to get a few small items, though.
