Title: Trackball Molex Connector
Post by: brock.sampson on May 09, 2007, 11:04:04 am

I'm building a spinner out of a happ trackball encoder board.  I cannot find the part number for the four pin molex connector that goes to the board.  I checked my local Radio Shack and struck out.  Does anybody know this part number?

Thanks,
Brad

I doubt you'll find what you're looking for at radio sack unless it's a cell phone.  Have you tried looking online?
Something like this:

Since it is permanent you can always just solder the connections. No need in adding cost to a cheep spinner. ;D

Or, to compromise, use quick disconnects, and label the wire pairs.
