Act Labs Ligh Gun Hardware Question
« on: September 03, 2005, 05:23:57 pm »
For those of you that have received you new style Act Labs light gun (like me :)), have you give any thought to extending the gun cable. It is a weird 9 pin Mini DIN connector. With the shield that makes ten connections if they're all used. I would like to extend it to the front of my cabinet so I can just plug the gun in like I do my USB game pads. What I'm looking for is ideas for nice connectors. If been to www.mouser.com and didn't come up with anything yet.

I did some searching and found this page.

It's very close.  Perhaps an email to act labs for info on the connectors would be best...
