  • Trying to source LED wire connecters?

    Posted by Denise Goodfellow on 8 September 2011 at 10:15

    Hi.

    I am looking for a supplier of LED wire connectors, we have had a few supplied by the 3D letter manufactures, but would like to source our own.

    They are similar to the blue snap connectors that you would use on a car, but smaller scale.

    Any ideas pointers most welcome

    tried Maplins they said no.

    thank you

    we use 3m ones! so easy to use and no probs with them! Not usre where you could get them in uk, but have posted a picture to try to help! i understand that they have a silicone bit when you press down it seals them and makes them 100% waterproof. if they are of interest let me know and i will find the box and pull off some codes that might work in google!

    cheers

    Definitely do sell them Denise, I have some down here but you are better off with Dan’s as they are cheaper anyway 😉

    Good link Dan … I searched high and low for these when we were looking for some.

    Cheers
