Hi - new to the forum

I need to extend my VM Superhub's DC power cable by making up (or buying?) a
female-socket/male-plug extender cable

Despite extensive web searching, a foray onto a VM forum - and a call to VM
support - I can't get definitive info on the plug's *exact* dimensions ...
i.e. outer diameter, inner hole diameter

Can anyone help?

TIA

They're usually 2.1mm (diameter of centre pin), with 2.5mm being next
most common.

I just unplugged mine - can /just/ get a 2.1mm drill in the free
socket (1.8 fits easily). Outer dia measures 5.5mm with chinky
vernier.

If you're desperate, you could just cut the cable add in a length of
whatever you have in the spares box.

Hi

For anyone still interested in this thread, I've just taken delivery of a
cable (2.1mm plug) that does the business - available below for less than 2
quid!
