timbo343 Posted June 26, 2023 Posted June 26, 2023 We have a DC Plug which i'm struggling to find online. It's an Assa Abloy "Bif" cable which is around €43 or we can buy them for £62 in the UK (https://eshop.assaabloyopeningsolutions.nz/cable-adapter-both-jack-and-3-pin-sma-ppcablebif-5f88c95d2b7d5) The barrel of the plug is around 12mm and the thickness of the barrel is around 3.5mm to 4mm. It's centre positive however im unsure what the middle of the plug is. It looks like it's 1.5mm but it's so small i'm unable to measure it. Hopefully someone will be able to help source a DC plug adapter with these specs.
howartp Posted June 26, 2023 Posted June 26, 2023 Get engineering dept on it - they'll have calipers to measure the pin for you.

timbo343 Posted June 26, 2023 Author Posted June 26, 2023 Think i've found the cable. Hope the barrel length is going to be long enough! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10-Pack-3-5mm-x-1-35mm-DC-Male-Plug-to-Wire-Open-End-Pigtail-Cable-Cord-3-5-G5R7-/295612522736 Beats paying the proper prices! Especially when the other end is a 2 pole mono 2.5mm plug!

Especially when the other end is a 2 pole mono 2.5mm plug! This wasn't the correct end, instead i need at least a 12mm barrel, with a 3.5mm x 1.35mm end. Trying to find this DC plug is like looking for rocking horse muck! Anyone knows where to get an end from, it can be on an adapter or anything as it's going to be soldered to the other end, please let me know.
timbo343 Posted July 18, 2023 Author Posted July 18, 2023 Turns out that this is the end I needed: https://www.aliexpress.com/i/4000856740917.html?gatewayAdapt=Msite2Pc Turns out it's as cheap as £4 to make this cable up.
