[QUOTE="Richard-the-Ninth, post: 523077, member: 23472"] [HEADING=3][/HEADING] MechNotElec, I feel I should point out the following. Banana plugs (Female) might not fit, but if they do, they are NOT polarity conscious, even if you colour code them you can still plug them in the wrong way round. If you opt to adapt (Butcher) the original plug how will you give the cables support so they don't snap or short out. I know it is best to repair rather than bin an item, but sometimes it is not viable, and this is one of those times, and it was not me who said Stay safe. [/QUOTE]
