Power adapter "connector" name?
« on: March 04, 2023, 02:37:42 pm »
Hello,

I'm looking for something like https://www.voltacharger.com/products/giga-extension-adapter?variant=44108821692728, is there any name for that kind of connector for US foldable plug? Is it possible to get only connector to the charger side? Is there any other brand doing such a cord?

It's used on all kind of brands like volta above, unitek (https://www.mbreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/unitek-66w-gan-charger-1.jpg and https://www.mbreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/unitek-66w-gan-charger-2.jpg), hyperjuice (https://zitseng.com/uploads/2020/03/DSC04132-1536x1024.jpg) and others.

Got plenty of those chargers and sometimes it's useful to plug it over extension cord than directly to the wall.

How can you ever do any business with that web site. Things keep popping up. There is no end to that.

I would not do even $0.02 worth of business with them. They don't want it. If they did, they would have a decent web site.

As far as I can see, that is nothing but a straight power cord, with standard connectors on both ends. You need to look at electric/electronic catalogs to find the connectors. But I suspect that you would wind up paying as much or more that way because the price I saw under the pop-ups was quite reasonable.

EPAIII, I think you need to take a closer look at the cord in question. OP is after the special socket that snaps onto the folded in US plug on a wall wart. That is anything but a “standard connector”. They’re not asking about the standard AC plug that goes into the wall.

As for the websites: OP isn’t asking about buying on those sites. It’s just where they found examples of the type of cord they want. Not that I see any issues with pop ups as you describe.
