I've put put a small "Dab" (amount) of Epoxy glue on the thread when tightening up. It acts like a 'thread locker'. Its keeps mine in place.

G’day @HDhomer Welcome to the group! I’m in Carrum, so Looks like we’re neighbours! Looks like you’re doing great with your setup! If you get into an emergency or need some moral support, don’t hesitate to drop me a message! 😁

Hello and Welcome! Highly recommend starting with the 101 manual. It gives great, clear guidance on to where to start and the various key decisions to consider with your display before purchasing any hardware / props etc. If you can’t wait, some of the “behind the scenes” videos are also a...

I have to echo what @Skymaster has said about using ‘xConnect extension cables’ in place of DMX cable. I’ve had commercial experience with this and can confirm you can get away with this type of cable for ~5m, but then there is degradation on the data packets. Technically speaking, the typical...

Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately you can access the product page but cannot check out once its in cart. I hope he hasn't shut down as I was really hoping to get some props that I can only find there :(

I just tried to open the ELD page and saw this. Has Troy now closed the store? I was really hoping to order a few more specific bits before he does. :(

How did your samples go?

Unfortunately I don’t have a link to his online shop, other people in the forum might have one though. I found Paul’s pricing to be very competitive when you message him directly on FaceBook / WhatsApp. FYI: China is currently on a national holiday until 8th October, so reply’s may be slow for a...

I just placed an order with Paul Zhang directly.. He provided both air and Sea freight options to reduce cost. Prices were very competitive & his communication was great. Good experience so far :)

With a big portion of the worlds semiconductors coming out of fabs in Taiwan, the tariffs placed on their exported electronics products were allegedly lower than China. I read commentary about China companies manufacturing components on the mainland, sending to Taiwan for assembly and export...

I’m so sorry for our US forum friends after reading this. Hopefully the solution is streamlined and easy so services can be resumed asap. Hopefully it doesn’t turn into a ‘tit for tat’ scenario.

@BooY it’s a shame you won’t have any before Christmas. It’s a +1 demand from me if you do decide to do another batch before the end of the year.

@merryoncherry apologies if the motivation for my question was unclear. My question was aimed at the ability to make custom cables for cost reduction, repair-ability and increased conductor diameter to reduce voltage drop, without having to completely change the connector shipped with pixels...

Thanks to everyone for your replies.

I have gone back through the forum history and can’t find the answer, so I’m posting here. Has anyone done a cross comparison to the connector types used (RayWu, Paul Z & X connect) to identify if they match a known standard that can be soldered and used to make custom cables? Eg, M12, SP13...
