Electronics geeks I need your help

Its a floppy power male connector, also know as a Berg connector or 'mini molex' so i have learned.

Can anyone tell me where i can buy a few from the UK or does anyone have any or any they can pinch and mail to me for a kiss. (kiss optional) These things must cost pence to produce and sell.

(Might have one sourced from a mate's old FDD but this is a personal quest to me now too)

I've tried Maplins, eBay and random google searches but that's all my ideas spent.

I trust in the power of OcUK to help me in my hour of need.

Thank you.

Dont forget people no competitors... just trust him...

Also you could always ask OcUK if they can get them in?

Mouser.com, buy the components individually in bulk and then put the cables together yourself to get the authentic sweat shop child labour feeling.

I'll go check my wires draw, back in 5 five.

If you search for "floppy extension cable" you should find something that has the connector you require.

Yeah The extension cable+chop and rewire option looks like the least painless option now. If I can find one from the UK or EU at least..
Hard work being a ***** sometimes

I've got this if it's any use to you? You could make one if you are handy with a soldering iron and have a molex connector.
