JST XH compatible connector?

[kuon]

Hello, I need some JST XH connector housings but they are very hard to find in my pincount. (XHP-2,3,4)

As it is not a high sensitivity component, I'll accept some compatible 3rd party solution.

Do you know any compatible connector?

Have a look on aliexpress https://aliexpress.com/item/1005001479020815.html

Search for "jst xh connector" and you will get enough hits to select from.

The problem with aliexpress is that it takes a really long time to get the goods and I'm in a hurry.

Depends on the hurry. To me 10 days is not that long, but that is for sending to France.

go on amazon.de and search for jst xh, plenty selling the same 80 piece kit with a few days delivery

or go to www.reichelt.de

Ali express is usually between one and six months. And now the customs are more and more refusing ali express packages because they don't declare the proper value.

Digi-Key carries (edit: and importantly, has in stock) multiple compatible clones, namely CNC Tech J series (51025, 51125, and 51225), Adam Tech 25SH-B/25CH-B series, and Cvilux CI22 series. Order by Monday night and it’ll arrive in Switzerland on Wednesday.

That hardly helps given the “I’m in a hurry” qualification.

LOL nonsense.

I order plenty of stuff from aliexpress to Switzerland and it’s usually 2-6 weeks. On rare occasion it’s been 1 week, or longer than 2 months. Never had a package refused.

Not to Switzerland, generally.

Too slow, and not customs pre-cleared. (Or pay $$$ for fast shipping.)

Not in stock, and also not customs pre-cleared.

Customs clearance on delivery often adds days to delivery, and surprise fees ranging anywhere from zero to $35 just to calculate whether or not you owe any 7.7% VAT.

That’s why I STRONGLY prefer, and recommend, ordering from vendors that ship to Switzerland with customs pre-cleared, VAT already collected, like Digi-Key, Mouser, Farnell, Conrad, Reichelt, etc.
