I've gotten a few more PMs about making more of these. I know there's not too many people left that need cables, but I'm hoping to get around 20 ordered so I can go through with another run of these. If you missed out on the last run, or didn't order cables for all your monitors and now want some more, let me know. Reply to this thread, or PM me so I can start an interest list. If I can't get 20, I might still make these for those interested, but you'll probably have to order the connectors and pins yourself and have them sent to me (we'll play it by ear). Pricing will be a little higher (aiming for $7 each) since I now know exactly what these are running me. I'll probably let thise thread go for a week or 2 before ordering parts.

Again, these will be 12" long each. And I will not start accepting payments until the interest list is complete. This run should go much quicker than the last.

i know that i missed the boat on the post with those monitors for sale. any idea where i can pick up one or two.

Did you contact Raven to see if he had stashed any??? If he doesn't have any, then you are probably out of luck. Most people who bought them are hoarding them. You might get one by putting out aWTB thread but you may have to pay a premium for it. That's the nature of the beast. Sorry.

i didnt contact him yet, but not a big deal. i will just get a psone screen and follow the steps to hack.. unless i can get the ge spacesaver 5" crt to work... its just for a jamma test bench..
 
Don't suppose I could just get two sets of connectors and pins to make my own? I'd rather color-code the wiring in case I ever need to quickly troubleshoot it, instead of having to go find the pinout.

If not, put me down for two sets.

BTW - is it necessary to populate EVERY ground? Are they not interconnected on the board? it would save wiring...

We'll see how many orders there are. If I can get enough orders I can get you just the connectors and pins. I'll put you down for 2 in the mean time.

Not sure if it is necessary to populate every ground or not, never looked into it. Just figured since the headers have the pins, I'd put wires for them. Tried to make easy for me, and easy for everyone else. Custom orders would have slown me down alot.
 
I plan on adding another regular sized connector for quick release and color coding wires. That would solve your problem and you can also make the harness a lot longer.
 
Looking to get 8 more. But I don't think that will happen. I can do the run with how many are interested now, but it'll be $8 per set. If we can get to 20 I can do them for $7 per set.
