| I was hoping someone could tell me where to look for miniature two wire plugs (+ & -)
I would like something durable that could be connected and disconnected frequently.
This would be to handle something like an emitter. _____________________________________________ "Luck favours the prepared!."

| Thanks I was looking at something like this as a possibility to IR my HL Jagdpanther, which is airsoft. I did not want to drill into the mantlet to install an emitter tube and was looking at options to use a removable barrel mount emitter, like I do on my KT. I thought perhaps the emitter wires could be connected to a small plug hidden in the driver's vision port, to use to plug in a removable, barrel mounted emitter. _____________________________________________ "Luck favours the prepared!."

| Glen, if you just need one set I can spare you one. I actually have my IR emitter installed IN the driver's vision slot on my JP. |

| I'm curious Glen why you want an external emitter mount over an in hull emitter? _____________________________________________ "There are things in Russia which are not as they seem..." Georgy Konstantinovich Zhukov

To allow it to track the barrel elevation. If you are referring to something hull mounted, at a fixed elevation, unless we are finding the need to elevate the emitter is not really necessary. Then a hull mount would be a lot simpler. _____________________________________________ "Luck favours the prepared!."

Oops, missed that one when I read Dean's post. And that works OK?, if it does, that would be the way to go. I often mess up and find the gun, and emitter, have inadvertently been pointed at the sky, ineffectively. _____________________________________________ "Luck favours the prepared!."

| With the fan pattern of normal emitters being AT LEAST a 20 degree cone, elevation tracking for the emitter is not really necessary in 99% of the firing positions we would have on our field... Not to metion those external emmitters are butt ugly! LOL! _____________________________________________ "There are things in Russia which are not as they seem..." Georgy Konstantinovich Zhukov

No question there This is looking more like the way to go if I get the JP field ready. _____________________________________________ "Luck favours the prepared!."

Glen, its kinda of like the Leo and the targeting system. In theory you should only be able to shoot at what you can see, and if you can't see where the gunner is or something similar, you probably should not be able to shoot at it. Good enough for me anyway, but of course it won't have as much of a fanning effect as if you mount it on the barrel. |

| Glen, Here is couple of pics of my JP. I used the Taigen all metal lower and I think the gearbox came with it I think or I just transplanted my stock HL one. You can also see the location of the IR emitter in the driver's vision slot. It spent the day at Oshawa as a loaner for people to try out and it worked okay as far as I can tell. " /> " /> " /> |

| Thanks, Mike Those look like the stock HL's with the zinc cast gears. I guess if the upgrades don't fit, those a cheap enough, they could be replaced in kind, if or when they wear out. Here is the fitting question about the upgrades in the link I posted. The upgrade is in the upper photo, a stock Panther Gearbox is in the bottom, the height and motor configuration are critical to getting gearboxes into the JP, it is tough to tell from the picture of the upgrade if it will fit. Curtis has offered to let me check this out on Dec. 6th. _____________________________________________ "Luck favours the prepared!."
