« on: Tue, 27 March 2012, 02:22:48 »

If not can anybody proxy me some from here http://www.lizardlick.com/LL-Quick-Connect-110-Insulated_p_184.html

If you can find a different size in the UK, as long as it's bigger, not smaller, it will work fine. Did you try any local electrical/hardware/electronic parts stores? I would think these things are pretty common. Again, size doesn't have to be exact.

I have a feeling there not called quick disconnects in the UK as even google searches within the UK don't show much.

Well, here's a "disconnect terminal"

and TAB-IN terminals:

they are listed under "splice" or "solderless" terminals. I just googled for connectors site:.co.uk
I'm sure if you go to a local store you'll find some, just bring the switch to make sure what you find fits.

I am in Australia and I was able to buy them from lizardlick for my b15 and voltech joysticks with no issues. Freight wasn't that expensive for me though

These connectors are used everywhere, from cars to kitchen appliances. You can find them in most hardware stores that sell electrical stuff, get out of the house sometime folks :-)
No need to go online, especially international, for simple stuff like crimp connectors, screws, etc.

Junkyard, used for connecting headlamp bulbs in cars. I bet that if you can find a dozen any junkyard dealer will at most ask a buck for em ;)

Oods are if you need a small volume, you can check out a hardware store or any place that sells electrical for cars.
I've got a bunch leftover from some joystick builds/mods which i got from akihabarashop.jp

I've stopped using lizardlick ever since they switched from the standard system to the preorder system but they're trying to fix stuff back to normal over there.
If you want domestic, I guess you can use gremlinsolutions

Don't use LL. as mr mortified said they are no longer dependent. Try focusattack.com .10 a piece. They ship fast. For Tech Talk.

I spend 9am-7pm working 5 days a week. Buying online is easier.

How many do you need exactly?
Like I said, if you want to go domestic, there is gremlin solutions which is located in the UK

You'd need an open barrel crimper though

So they call them crimps? Good store you found there, here's another variety:

I don't have a crimper so I used pliers to attach mine to wires.

I never go to gremlin so I don't know what they stock.  The closed barrel insulated terminals should do just fine, just be sure to crimp twice.  Once for the connection and once near the end of the wire for stress relief.

Open barrel crimpers are expensive too.......

I don't understand why they converted the .110 inches into mm though........

size doesn't have to be exact, here's where I used mine, they are a bit wider than the buttons' terminals, but very snug anyway. Note the crimping with pliers, I used the wire-cutter part of the pliers, careful not to cut the piece in two which happened on my first try :-)
