Title: Quick disconnects for Sanwa buttons?
Post by: Martoon on January 13, 2006, 11:02:28 am

Are there any kind of quick disconnects that will slide on to the terminals on Sanwa buttons?  The terminals are much smaller than the standard .25" quick disconnects you can get in an auto parts store.

You can go to Radioshack and get them.

I think 3/16" are still too big.  I'd say the terminals on the sanwa buttons are about half that.

Thanks!

Anyone know a source for these that has cheap shipping?  I hate to pay $7 FedEx shipping for a $7 bag of connectors. :(

Also, does anyone know what kind of 5-pin connector that is on the Sanwa Joysticks (JLF-TP-8Y)?  I know you can get a pre-wired Sanwa-specific harness, but they seem a little pricey for a plastic connector.  I suspect they're a standard connector of some sort.  Anyone know what that's called?
