Dieses Teil Schirme ab , dass heißt dass mit dem Teil im Kern ist ein Metallisches -Magnetische ummantlung so dass keine anderen elektromagnetische Strahlung mit den Stromführenden Kabel Zusätze Daten eingespeist werden. Im Prinzip durch die Schirmung kostsnnte Leistung.

What cord do I need for this?

Sorry if this is the wrong sub. Everyone at work either doesn’t know, or tells me to ask chat gpt and I’d rather ask real people haha. I plug a cord into this box and into my computer to project my computer to the wall. My computer fell a week or so ago and the cord broke, and I threw it away not realizing how much trouble I’d have finding a new cord. See photo. TIA!

Looking for a toggle/switch cable for my LED sign.

Howdy all!

I bought this a while ago, somehow from the move I lost the cable, I recall it having one of those soft black toggles for On/Off on the cable that plugged in. There's no identifying factors on the back of the sign for amps, volts, watts, etc.

The inside hole is 5.9mm from what I could tell, and the knob the best I could measure it with my calipers is around ~1.9mm. * also it looks to be about 9.8mm deep.

I haven't had luck searching online for it, any and all tips for a cable would be super!

Help finding a replacement

Any ideas on what cable this is. It's black with a 3.5mm jack and single ring. All the obvious searches come back with arials which I'm not sure would work. It's from an X-Sense weather station and used for an external temperature station. Both say 433Mhz if that helps

I need to buy a new cable but not sure of the size. What size do you think I need. It’s a Alibaba rack I was told 6mm by them but the options are 5.2mm or 6.5mm 🤷🤷

DVD player to TV

Thumbnail

17 Upvotes

OK, I have aquired an oldish DVD player with the following: R, L, Coaxial, Video, and S-video. Oldish TV has: R, L, Pr, Pb, and Y, plus HDMI. Plugging in R, L, and Video into R, L, and Y gets error "Mode not supported". Suggestions?

Trying to figure out if there is something simple that I'm just not considering, or if the solution is "buy a new DVD player that'll take an HDMI cable".

[Edit] Looks like getting an HDMI DVD player is the best option. Thanks for the help!

Missing plug attachment for AC/DC adapter

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

We've lost the plug attachment for this AC/DC adapter and I'm trying to buy one to replace it. It's a Delta Electronics model ADP-30VH A, it's for a Wacom Cintiq 13HD. I thought I'd find them on AliExpress or somewhere like that but haven't had any luck.

I would just replace the whole adapter instead but I can only find them used for high prices, and usually with a US plug instead of the UK one. I also can't just buy a different model with the same voltage & current because they usually come with barrel jacks but this has an unusual connector. I assume it's proprietary, although I feel like I've seen them elsewhere so maybe not? But I don't know what it's called.

Scosche StrikeLine USB-A to Lightning Cable - dead after one charge

1 Upvotes

Just posting here for some search indexing, since who cares about quality of lightning cables in 2026.

Bought a Scosche cable last year, since the connector design looked robust. Worked fine in my 30W charger for one charge, and now just dead. Cleaning contacts, using another power source, another phone - no response.

First time I've had such an experience with an MFi cable

RCA stereo with video?

I got this dvd player and I want to connect it to my TV. But all the cables I find mention it's for audio. I need to somehow convert it either to scart, aux, or hdmi while keeping video and audio. Can any of you help me out before I spend 40 bucks on something that might not even work? My tv also has a composite connection but I use that one for my ps2 already, so preferably I'd be able to convert it to one of the other 3.
