Custom Anderson connector cables

[GOTO]

Hi all, does anyone know where in Sydney I can get custom cables made? I need a swag of new 12v cables with Anderson connectors. I went to Cable Services and had no joy there or suggestions.

Also, and this is a long shot... I'm also after a serial to usb for the feathertouch boss 2 box. It's a very short and flimsy cable that I have had tiny shocks from as one of the wires isn't terminated correctly near the serial cable.
Thanks in advance.

I found a site offering a similar service:


https://digilink.com.au/about-us/


They are in North Ryde
There is a phone number on the site it may be worth giving them a call.
I used to work in an industry where we required this type of service regularly and got them done in a place in Mascot but that was 30+ years ago, the chances of them still being in business in this day and age are slim. Add to that the fact I can't remember the company name....
Sorry!


The USB to serial, if you're just going for an adapter which converts there are adapters then there are adapters. Don't cheap out (sorry, I'm trying to remember the brand of the good quality thing I got, I'll find it later) I bought a few before I got one which worked with an Elbex speed camera (former, I played with it for astronomy, amazing camera, amazing zoom (totally different sensor for zoom) and amazing pan and tilt capabilities controlled by xbox controller) but that coaxial signal was always lousy.
You could ask at the company I put a link to, they may do that too for a custom made unit.


Good luck!

I just make my own - The connectors are not expensive, but the crimping tool was about $50.

A good quality crimping tool is the key to success.
I was a forklift technician for some years specialising in electrical/electronic forklifts and we'd solder them on but that's easy when you have an oxy acetylene set up and aren't paying for the consumables.
