Like this? Cliff DC-10A Low power connector Socket, horizontal mount 6.3 mm 2.1 mm 1 pc(s) | Conrad.com

This one is spec to 1Amp? 4840.2200 Schurter, DC Power Connector, 2-pole, 6.3mm | Farnell UK

 

 

Unfortunately they're not inline sockets to fit to a flying lead/cable.

@Dodge

Not only are those two examples of yours panel mounted and not inline. The inner pins are 2.1mm & 2.0mm respectively and not the 3.0mm or 3.1mm required to match the Hornby power supply plug.

I bought a couple of these plus more 6.3mm plugs to make a cat’o’9 tails power adapter. Not exact but close enough.

I have been pondering this too, and may have misunderstood the situation, but;

I already have a DCC controller for my 00 layout (Hornby Select…adequate, limited and a bit 20th Century).

My new and second layout will be a reach to connect that controller, but I don’t want to use the cheap analogue controller which comes with the Scotsman set. It seems to have a built-in wasp’s nest!

So I have bought a N18 decoder from Gaugemaster and plan to buy a second used Select on eBay, as a stop gap solution. Have a look at the Simon’s Shed channel for fitting this decoder.

I hope to live long enough to see all this much-hyped TT120 stuff become available! It may be iffy!

Dodge, while the connector size is now correct, again you have panel-mounted not inline (plug and socket each go on the end of a cable to join them).

Clement, your arrangement will work and you could use the dongle to control non-BT decoders via the App if you use any HM7000 decoders. But you still have a 1 Amp limitation unless you upgrade the Select PSU to 4 Amps.

Thanks Fishman…

Yes, I am aware of the current issues.

But first, build your baseboard! The Scotsman is mostly still in its box!

Fishy,

These are not for me, i was trying and failing with helping another member out.. I have connectors sorted for my power supplies. Of course nothing is tested yet...
