Magnetic Connectors - Better Than Average

kmikemoo

If you missed the subtlety of the Crocodile Dundee reference... these connectors are fantastic.  Thank you e14 for the opportunity to try them out.

What are they?  Specifically, the MulticompPRO MP series magnetic connectors.  What makes these so useful is the 30VDC/VAC 5A rating.  I can get into a lot of trouble with 5 amps.

I'm kind of an application guy.  How can I use it?  I had a few ideas.  Again, thank you e14 and rscasny for letting me bring them to life.

    Hi JoJ1 .  Thank you for the opportunity.  I am honored.  I've been thinking of different applications all day.  They're in the "warm Jello" stage right now, but I'll reach out once they firm up a bit.  If you had a specific connector or application in mind... I'm all ears. Relaxed

    That's the way these things go.

    Now a 20K oscilloscope I can see many useful applications, but then I was involved in several multimillion dollar testing projects.

    We had to do by hand what many of the new scopes provide.

    What a difference a few decades make.

    Ooooooh this is great, so happy you liked the Magnetic Connectors Mike. I manage these products for Newark/Farnell and was super excited to hear you were giving them a trial. Grinning

    I also have some small magnetic connectors and kits for handheld/wearable/device type applications. If you want a sample or two I can send them to you!

    The sequel will have to wait.  We have a hard water problem right now.
    "Crocsicle" is the term that comes to mind right now.
    Fahrenheit.  Colder tomorrow.

    I was thinking of the sequel video...

    Sitting in a boat in the middle of a crocodile infested lake fishing for the boat's ignition key which has been dropped overboard, with your magnetic connector... Slight smile
