Dew heater plug?

[iceman]

Mr Gary Beal was kind enough to send over his homemade light box, but to power the thing I need the type of plugs that dew heaters use..

It has a longish pin in the middle with a sheath around the outside.

Exactly what are they called, and where can I get them from?

Can you get a cable that has them at both ends, or does it have a cigarette lighter plug at one end, or do I need to make one up custom?

Thanks

Sounds like an RCA connector.
Available at any audio shop, Jaycar or Dick Smith

Yep, simple RCA Mike. I use them as a standard on all the electrical stuff around the mount. RCA male (plug) is what you need to fit into it.

Thanks for the advice here.. I got a male-male RCA plug and I now have light.. in a box!

Now all I need is clear skies to be able to do some imaging.. so then I can take some flats!

Thanks to Gary too.. You're a legend!
