Hiya,

I bought a Maplins power bank thingy

To escape the tyranny of batteries. However the cables it comes with are ridiculously short and have angled jacks, and don't suit some of my effects. Does anyone know where I can buy some replacement power connectors? I've looked around on the maplins website and they seem to only sell 1m long ones, which is a bit like overkill.

Before anyone suggests it, I'm sh*t with soldering irons, so that option is out.

Simon, if you get stuck just get the plugs you need and I'll solder them up for you. Gees (Mill Road) have a big selection.

One thing you need to be careful of though, make sure all the pedals are - ground or + ground otherwise you might create a short circuit. Won't harm the pedals, but might pop a fuse in the Maplin unit.
