    Where to buy 2-pin connector for electronic boards?

    So I'm working on an EtekMag project and have the solenoid, board and piston, but I don't have the 2 pin connector that goes from the board to the wiring for the noid. Does anyone know of a good (cheap) place to find that. Do they sell it at Radio Shack, or will I need to go through an online store? Or if anyone has an extra one they don't need, let me know.

    Thanks.

    The only thing with those is that i am almost certain they have to be crimped onto the wires so you would need to find a crimping tool

    I believe that p8ntbal4me sells them. If my memory serves me right i bought a set of wires that were pre-crimped to the connector for $3 that i just soldered onto the old white ones

      Yeah, that's what I'm looking for, the pre-crimped wires to the connector and I will solder those wires to the ones off of the noid.

        Do you have a photo of what you need, I have the crimping tools for the EMag boards and if they are the same Molex type connectors I can help you out.

          This is not the specific board that I have, but the connection is the same as what I'm looking for. It's the 2-pin male connection to the left of the 4-pin connection. So I would need the 2-pin female connection to go into the board.

                You could tear apart some old electronics, and pray for a spare one. I had some old timmy eyes, and took them apart for my egomag. Oddly enough, I've never owned a timmy....

                  I have bags of the two and four pin connectors and the crimp pins associated with them.

                  PM me if you need some.
