Q:I understand that telephone splice connectors are designed to splice 2 or more phone lines. But can they be used to splice speaker wires? If so, would it make a good connection?

Yes, they would make and maintain a good connection, but don't expect to run a lot of power (over 30 watts). This could eventually cause the connection to fail. These connectors are fine for small signals, as they were designed for. If you must use connectors for speaker wires, and cannot come up with a solid piece, by all means, use yellow electrical wire nuts as they will provide more dependable service than a tiny 3M connector meant for solid # 28 AWG. I hope this will help you. Happy Holidays!

Q:I have just purchased a new Nintendo WiFi USB connector. Everything installed fine, and when I bring it up and try to connect with my DS the program shows that it recognizes my DS and the Setupis complete. But when the connection test starts, it shows three green bars on my DS and on my computer and all looks good until it stops and says Error Code: 52003, Unable to obtain IP Address. The tech support online is no help. Is my having Windows Vista causing this? I thought that if it weren't compatible that the program wouldn't have installed at all. Anyway, what should I do?

i also hav 1 but i hav an xp so maybe it is just the vista, try re-installing and if at your last attempt it still doe'snt work check all the sites for problems or even call them if they hav a # if not i gess u hav to return and not have wi-fi

Q:I have a couple of iPod USB connector cable around, and I can't tell which ones are USB 2 or USB 1. Is there some kind of physical difference that can help me to distinguish between the two? I am so technologically challenged, its ridiculous.

The USB-Dock Connector cable NEVER was USB 1.1, it is too slow and can not power the iPod. It's ALWAYS been USB 2.0.

Q:I have cooler master GX550W PSU and I have bought Palit GTX660 Ti Jetstream Graphics card which requires 2 six pin power connector. Now my PSU has total two 6+2 pin PCIE power connector. Now how can I connect my card? If I connect two 6 pin connectors and leave those two pins will it work?My configuration is:i5 3470Asus P8z77-vGskill RipjawsX 8GB 1600MHzPalit 660Ti Jetstream 2GB2TB HDD 7200 rpmDVD RW Drive2X200mm CM Megaflow 1X120mm Case FanPlease help me.GX550 link,

hi mate just use the main 6pin connector on each and leave the 2pin section hanging loose . coolermaster have given you 2 x 6+2pin connectors for when you may need a 8pin pci-e connector but by designing them in a 6 and 2 configuration it gives you more power connectivity options so yes you can leave the 2pin sections and your Palit GTX660 Ti Jetstream Graphics card will work fine just make sure the 6pin connectors are fully inserted until they click or lock into place they are then correctly fitted and supplying power to your new cardfinally ( and unrelated to the question ) your coolermaster GX550W is more than powerful enough for your GTX660ti . and it has a single +12v rail delivering a healthy 44A on that rail that's well above the recommended ampage for the GTX660ti (28A ) and this will also aid stability aswell I hope this helps .any questions let me knowgood luck mate ( and enjoy your GTX660ti ) !

Q:Hi, I have an old battery (kan 5w05337) that I'm trying to use. The connector is white plastic rectangular, about 1/3x1/2x1/4 with 3 connectors, 2 round and one square. I need the matching (male) adapter. Any hints on where to get one would be great. Also, the wiring is black, yellow, red (on the square). Anyone know what yellow is for? (Are there 2 circuits?) thanks!Eric

The connector might be molex type. Look in the Mouser or Digikey catalog for help finding one. The Yelow wire is probably a thermal sensor the charger uses to prevent over charging. I would strongly recommend the proper charger.

Q:I think somewhere around 3 or 4 months ago I, I bought a Nintendo Wi-Fi USB connector. I read the instructions and installed everything carefully, and it worked fine. Today though, when I tried to connect to Wi-Fi with my DS, it connected, and some seconds after that it disconnected again, and it gave an error. I went to my connection settings and checked if everything was allright, it recognized the connector, but when it tested the connection the same thing as earlier happened, then after a while (an hour or so) I tried it again and this time it didn't recognize the connector at all. I tried to reinstall the connector but it didn't work, and I'm not really sure what to do next. I think I still have a warranty so I could bring it back to the shops, but I just don't understand why it acts so strange. Is anyone else having the same problem, that it connects and then disconnects and errors?

*swap your firewall off *deploy the CD for the USB *after installation, click on the icon *click your wii console call (the nickname you named it) *it could determine that it is your wii *then try connecting to the information superhighway returned *turn on your firewall

Q:Hi ,I have recently bought a Philips HTS 3105 Home theater system which works great.But I am unable to find an FM antenna with the correct 'connector' for my system.It's outer dia is same as that of the normal TV coaxial RF connector , and the center pin has a hole in it.Sorry for being crude, but i don't know what is the connector's name Pls. help.Thanks in advance.

It's called a push-on F connector. However, unless you are connecting it to your cable system, all you need is a single strand of wire that you can shove into the center hole. The best is a 24 guage or thinner wire, about 3 feet long, with a loose knot in it that forms a crude loop. I've even put a twist-tie in there and it worked as an FM antenna. If you are going to connect it to a coaxial cable, you will need an adapter. Normally, these come with the system, but if not, it's a Radio Shack item.

Q:I'm currently using the original connectors and of course my games are blurry.

no

Q:I have an hp pavilion dv9000 laptop. It has no hard drive so I'm putting my hard drive in it from my Compaq presario CQ60 laptop in the pavilion. I believe I need a hard drive connector to do that. Does it matter what kind of connector I need? Also where can I buy them? I need to know places offline that sell them like walmart best buy etc.

My only guess is that it was a low-quality, shotty insulated or shorted cable.
