Mini Tamiya's....where to get them????
Number three in the series....
Ok, so I've been looking to do some re-wiring and I requie a few mini tamiya connectors. Problem is, any electronics store I go to doesn't have them and doesn't seem to have a damn clue what they are when I ask. I've even brought examples no luck.... Where in the hell do I get these!??! (I'd just switch to deans but that would cost me over $50 to get them all switched) |

Yes, I forgot to say, I'm in the Kitchener, Ontario....so anything local would be good....even though everything local so far doesn't suffice.
That eBay price is good though if I have to resort to that. Thanks. |

Johns Photo and Hobby on Danforth near Woodbine Ave in Toronto, They would probably ship if you don't want to pick them up. Take care....

Local hobby stores, unless its a large chain, usually charge 4-5x what the connectors can be bought for from other sources, I never buy local because of the price difference. I've bought 3 bags of 10 pairs of deans connectors off of ebay over the course of the last year and I've never paid more than CDN$17 after shipping for the whole bag of 10. Shipping from Hong Kong because of the small package usually takes a week or less. Last edited by LUTNIT; February 18th, 2007 at 11:30.. |

I like the stuff available at cheapbatterypacks.com. I'm always in the market for wires, connectors, heatshrink etc. but does anyone know a Canadian company that deals in the same stuff? The local hobby store has a fair amount of stuff, but not everything I'm after.

I have a good supply of #18AWG red & black Belden Teflon insulated (aerospace grade) wire at my disposal if anyone needs a few feet. Is very close to the same stuff TM uses within their mechbox.

You have to look at hobby shops. When I went to school at loo, I just drive down to sauga to get them. It's only like 20 mins ride anyways, lot easier than ebay.

Well I was talking about indidual prices I've seen at hobby stores. That....plus I'm too lazy to switch everything and I like being compatable with other so I can swap and share batteries. Perhaps I'll try eBay though it'll take forever with fucking Paypal! |

Everyone seems to have problems with Paypal taking forever but mine is always instant, strange.
I never get anything at hobby stores, I go to electronic stores, there is one in Ottawa that has heatshrink ($2 for 4 feet or something), silicone coated wire, etc. Stalker, I may have to take you up on that aerospace grade wire, my stock of silicone wire is running short. |
