240v Nocon timer in USA?

[Bob Salomon]

It seems that the connector is discontinued. Anybody know of a source for the plug? I'm attaching a better image from elsewhere.

If you are in the USA you could contact Lashen Electronics in Denville, New Jersey.

Oops, in Rockaway, NJ. They moved since we moved from Rockaway!

Is there a reason you have to use this timer? Seems like you’re creating a whole lot of problems you may not even have thought of. Timers are not exactly hard to find.

I guess I need to either use it or make it usable to somebody else (eg to sell). Both of these mean figuring it out.

I use the same connector for my safelight on the MG500 PSU. Search for IEC connectors, they're commonly used in Europe.

You could use one of these: https://media.rs-online.com/t_large/F7769113-01.jpg and if you're careful, cut off the shroud.

Well you could pitch it and get something that works in this country. You’ll spend more trying to make it work than it’s worth

You could get an actual 220 volt outlet installed in your house to use the timer. Or use something like this (takes two 120v plugs on different circuits and combines them into a 220 plug): http://www.quick220.com/220_catalog/...onverters.html

YOu say you opened it up? Sometimes power supplies have a switch or jumpers you can configure for different voltages. Is this an option in your unit?

Otherwise as said before... sell it to someone in a country that can use it and purchase something usable here in the USA.

Thanks for all the suggestion - I "adapted" a plug connector as per the advice here: https://www.photrio.com/forum/thread...troler.141235/ by sawing off the shroud and it works fine.
