Minitor 3/4 charger pins

Post by Fighting41NY »

Does anyone know a source for the brass charger pins? I have tried calling a few Big M dealers with no success. I get the impression that chargers are treated as throw away and they don't normally sell the pins as a spare part. I would pay for the pins no problem. I need the extra pins for converting chargers to programmers. Would buy any old junk chargers you have just for the pins. I have tried every pin manufacturer in the world I can think of and it doesn't look like an off the shelf pin. It looks like a Big M custom part. Anyone know who the OEM is who builds the charger or the pins or know an insider at Big M who could get pins or the source?

Thanks, Jeff

I've modified pins from Deutsch connectors for this purpose. These connectors are widely used on fire trucks. Your local apparatus dealer might have some they'd give you. Otherwise, best bet is to find an older charger that doesn't work.
