Lockable DC Power Plug for Up Extreme Power Jack

waldiman

All,

we are looking for a suitable **LOCKABLE **DC power plug for the new DC power jack on the Up Extreme.

According to the data sheets it should be 5.5mm x 2.5mm with M8x0,75 lock nut. However, it seems to be not a very common type of connector for lockable plugs.

The original Up Extreme power supply (EP-PS19V342A65W) seems to have an appropriate lockable plug. However, we rely on our own power supply with a different voltage level.

If someone knows a suitable lockable plug solution and could share any component information, it would be highly appreciated.

Thanks a lot in advance,
waldiman

We select a common DC lockable connector for UP Xtreme. If you could not find it in the market, please contact [email protected]. We can sell it. It will be something like https://i.imgur.com/Gdi0j4g.png

I was also looking for a similar connector and hence by seeing this post, I contacted [email protected] but got the reply that they can't provide such a connector and asked me to put a query on the community. Can you help us where we can purchase it or part number or link from where I could purchase?

We have successfully used the Switchcraft 761K reference that can be bought from usual suspects (Farnell, Digikey, Mouser, RSComponents...).

Hi this DC power plug is not fitting into the board. Both board and plug has male connection.

@Aling can you share us the details from where we can purchase the power plug for UPXtreme, I don't want to use the AC adapter, I want to give the power through a battery.

as rreignier suggested the Switchcraft 761K works fine, you can find it on mouser or other shops and we will probably include in our shop soon too: https://eu.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Switchcraft/761K?qs=tCUFd3%2B19IMfpexPJCg8YQ==
