Q:I already have RCA cables. Just need to find a place that would sell the power cord.

you could either go to sony themselves or try a really good car audio shop and probably order you one and possibly try OKorder and see if they have one if you have halfords try them they are good for your different needs (if you have one ).

Q:On my original PS3 power cable it says 10A 125V, do I have to make sure the cable I use from a computer matches the same?Also can you explain how it works if the cables don't matter

Yes, so long as it isn't thin wire like as thin as the A/V Cable almost. But yes, any Monitor/PC Cord will work.

Q:Can i make the CAT 5 speaker cable, explained on many websites, as a 4 gauge power wire from my battery to my amp?

Whoever advised against this is correct.

Q:Hi everyone. On a national trading website, I am planning on buying a second hand xbox 360. Now the auction I'm aiming for, only comes with the console and the hard drive. No power supply or av cables. But on another auction, they are selling power leads and av cables on their own. I was wondering if all types of power supplies/ av cables work on the different types of xbox's (Elite, Pro, Slimline, Orginal etc)10 points for best answer ;)

There are 3 different power supplies, and 5 different types of Xbox. First is the Xenon/Falcon Xboxes. The power supplies for these work with all Xboxes (excl the Slim) Next are the Opus/Zephyr. The power supplies for these ONLY WORK with these consoles. They have a little plastic pin in the plug so that they wont work in any other type of Xbox Lastly we have the Jasper Xboxes. Again, the power supplies only work with these consoles. Unless you buy a power supply for Generation One xboxes (Xenon/Falcon) then you're not guaranteed to get it to work. TBW

Q:Hey guysA 6mm power cable can hold up to 25A, but, if a product draws a maximum of 4A, in theory, can this 6mm be reduced? If so, by approx how much?Cheers, much appreciated!! :)

Your wire has to be matched to the circuit breaker. If you have a 15 amp breaker you need #14 wire. Otherwise you could overload the wire and burn it out and the CB wouldn't blow.

Q:I'd like to know what type of wire/specs. for a 3 phase high power cable that can handle a 41.6KVa that will be buried under the ground? The voltage will be a 220 volts in 60 Hz. could you show me how to calculate or any charts are really appreciated.

220V is phase voltage. Then line voltage will be 3^-2 *220 =381V.The current will be 63A.(41.6/3*220 ).The specification of cable is 3phase 4wire 400V. 50mm^2(if aluminum) or 25mm^2(copper) UG cable . If neutral wire is not required, cable will be 3 wire type.

Q:So this is on my brothers christmas list and I can't find one anywhere. I'm assuming that computers don't have the juice to power a 1TB external without a power source, especially since he needs this for a laptop. He just wants it USB powered, btw.If anyone can find one for me that would be great, because I can't seem to...Thanks!

USB okorder / It's the only one I'm finding, and it seems to meet the specifications you're looking for. Also, USB powered. I don't recommend usb-only powered drives, but it's a free country. :-) -Matt

Q:what can i do so i can use my DL burner on my new pc?

EIDE (Enhanced IDE) is no longer a standard on most computers which uses SATA. In turn, they also use different power connections. The channel cable is dependent on the mother board, but the power supply is dependent on the power box. If there is an IDE channel, but no power cable, you have only two options. 1. Buy a new SATA based drive. 2. But a new power supply. Buying a new power supply to replace the one you have is definitely a void of warranty. You are much better off with a new drive.

Q:At the end of every work day I shut it down in the normal way (through the Start Menu) and then every morning I return to it and it won't turn on no matter how many times I press the on button or if I hold it down.The only way I can get the computer to turn back on is to remove the power cable for 10 minutes and then put it back in and hold the on button for about 10 seconds. This is a bit of a pain but also quite worrying as the computer is new.I wonder if my computer is broken or if this is an intentional feature. If so how do I turn it off?It might help to know that even when I have shut it down there is an LED on the back that stays on. In fact it stays on for 5 minutes even if I take the power cable out!I have a Dell Vostro 260S PC. It runs Windows 7 64-bit and the processor is an Intel i3Please help techies.

It really sounds like a hardware problem, you shouldn't have to unplug from the power supply and plug it back in after ten minutes to get the pc to power on, swap out the power supply and the power cable that hooks to it , also make sure the power cable 24pin cable is in the motherboad good and tight and the option cable 4-8 pin is hook to the motherboard a connector above the cpu if the motherboard has one.

Q:Hi,I have a set of Sony speakers that are a few years old. They have no power cable (nowhere to plug a cable in either) and the aux cable has no jacks. It is just two split wires. How can I connect them to my TV?Thanks,Aaron

They need an amplifier in order to work....You attach the speakers to the amp then the amp to the TV....You could also take the plastic shell off your TV then disconnect the internal speakers of the TV and solder the wire from the speakers you have onto the wire just connected from the TV speakers...You also would probably need to drill a small hole in the plastic cabinet of the TV in order to pass the wire through... also would need to figure out the polarity of the internal wires and also the speaker wire from the cabinet speakers or satellites...also the Impedance must also match..so it could be that you would need to add a resistor in order to match the impedance of the TV's amplifier....
