That’s a great ideaAlan could/would you do a molex assorted box?
Molex have about 30,000 different parts! I’m gonna need a bigger box!Alan could/would you do a molex assorted box?
Yes I’m sure you’re right, no worriesMolex have about 30,000 different parts! I’m gonna need a bigger box!
What desoldering gun do you use / recommend? I did have a cheapy but kept losing suction and annoying me so treated myself to one of these! https://hakko.co.uk/product/fr-301-portable-desoldering-gun/Please be REALLY careful if replacing molex's. They are second in the list of the easiest ways to strip througholes in a board IMO (The first being changing/removing the snap-on caps on the driver boards etc).
In most cases they will be fine (if you let the heat do the work, and make sure that all of the soldier is gone) or have a decent desoldering gun that can fully clean the hole all the way through.
I have two double sided boxes full of different Molex connectors for pinball boards!
Easiest way to do the larger KK series PCB connectors is to use the 24way ones and chop them down to size. If careful you can also do that with the "plug" side as well. Smaller ones you have to use the proper sizes tho, because of the backing "block" being all in one rather than individual pin
I have had one like that for a while, well worth the money.I use this , much cheaper than a hakko, but works good.
I have similar(It's quite old now - about 8 or 9 years) however it's bigger brother...I use this , much cheaper than a hakko, but works good.
