Hi guys,
attached the wiring. I am not that similar with it, which connector is that exactly?

[willow whale]

3 pairs of 5v/gnd

can you measure the pitch?

[tepid dove]

I can try later, yes.

[tepid dove]

Just use on pair or really all? 😅 I am a noob in this

[willow whale]

you can just use one pair

its probably for higher current capability

no idea why though since it has barely any leds

[tepid dove]

Okay I understand. Will try to measure it this evening. Then normally it seems to be really easy to convert to your QR. I guess 😅

[chrome steeple]

what is the idea behind that

lul

[willow whale]

One pin pair might just be good for 300mA for example

Does it make sense here? No

But what do I know 🙂

[sacred path]

looks like jst zr, 1.5mm pitch

i think it's rated for 1A per pin

[willow whale]

need 3A for all those LEDs

[merry garden]

Likely over designed so people don’t mod them lol

[tepid dove]

My caliper is broken... but this is a 1,5mm JST connector which is a little bit too large. 😄

So I guess its 1,25mm

I just bought a PB 1.25 9P Connector and it fits. Bought these set: https://amzn.eu/d/2tabF10

@tepid dove do you mind showing which pins you connected your gnd and 5v to?

[tepid dove]

It’s printed on the PCB of the wheel. Or what do you mean?

I just used the ones on the right.

[celest panther]

Got it. So you used last 4 pins for your cable, it makes sense. Thank you

[tepid dove]

Yes. 🙂

[willow whale]

Wheel doesn’t draw a lot of power, 4 cables is more than sufficient - that’s how I connected mine as well

[glass saddle]

Would this work for the new QR2 version USBc pass through ?

[tepid dove]

Sure. Why not?

[glass saddle]

OK, I am very non technical when it comes to all of this and trying to get my head around the connectors lol. I also have the RSR 911 I need to make a connector for

[glass saddle]

Hey Julian, LCSC is asking me for the MPN or part number for the connectors I need for the Merc and Porsche Simlab wheels… Do you happen to know the connector type and size I could provide them?

[tepid dove]

#1314624578743697521 messagec does this not help?

[glass saddle]

Ok so a 1.25 9p connected, they did mention they thought it was their ZHR9 which is a 9 position 1.5MM pitch, so perhaps i need to edit that for 1.25mm pitch
