Where to buy a strange mains lean on a Sunday?
I don't suppose anyone knows where I can get a mains lead with a C19
connector on a Sunday? These are a higher current (16A) and slightly larger equivalent of the standard IEC mains inlet connectors, e.g http://uk.rs-online.com/web/search/s...ct&R=311931 5 Just the C19 connector would do, as I could make up the rest. Thanks -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |

Was hoping for something in London, or perhaps up to 40 miles out to the North, West, or South of London (should have said in the original posting). Need 4 of them too. -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |

I've got one for sure and possibly a couple more if I can find them that you are welcome to if its any help (Hemel Hempstead). Thanks Peter -- I'll followup by email. -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |

Andrew How about Rapid Electronics in Colchester? They have mains leads with a C19 connector (stock number 23-6470) and their trade counter is open on Sundays between 10 am and 2 pm.

Andrew, Thinking about anyone searching in the future - did you find anywhere? No. Rapid Electronics was suggested, but was too far. I picked one up from Peter (thanks Peter) and I pinched my own one, which gave me two. A couple of people mailed asking what it was for. It's a Sun 8000P blade rack. It takes 10 blades, each with 4 Opteron CPUs on it (i.e. 40 Opterons total). It has 4 x 3kW power supplies; it requires 3 to work and one redundant. I tried it with just 2 of the power supplies and only 3 blades. The blade chassis controller booted, but it still wouldn't allow me to power up any of the blades. I've ordered 4 leads from RS. -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |

Andrew, Thanks - nice to know either way. I know these people are a) good, b) have C19 kit, c) are in North London but d) are closed on Sundays so did not mention them befo http://www.videkonline.co.uk/home.asp (Typing C19 into the search box is sufficient.) Should have done so as they are open Mondays. -- Rod |

Was this a boiler replacement? ;-) |
