Power Supply Cables

Post by oldangelmidnight »

Does anyone know a cheap way to get power supply cables? I need a couple of the basic male/male cables and could use a few female/male extension cables.

DIY!? 2.1mm DC Plugs cost around 65c and cable isn't that expensive either. If you have minimal solder skills you should be able to do it.

^What he said.

You could also get Mcspunkle to make you some badass pink ones in any length you like.

No time for DIY.
I forgot about the Mcspunkle. I'll have to look into that. Probably not as cheap as I want, though. I'm super-cheap. I don't want to pay more than $1 each...

That's super cheap for sure. I will go as far as to say you will never find them for $1.

I've been looking for awhile and these are the cheapest I've found:

They're easy to make, but sort of a pain in the ass, and you can't even buy the parts for $1 a piece.

That's the best price I was able to find a while ago. For whatever reason, male-to-male 2.1mm cables are really hard to find.

Power supply cables are awkwardly expensive...

I can't vouch for the company-- just showed up on google. But it's cheaper? But you have to buy 4...

I have to charge like $5 a piece for them for now (for an ~18" or 1 McSpuncklepenis cable)... until I get better at making them all super-fast like (and find the parts to make them cheaper).
