Elco and C23 Plugs

[ArkansasBowler]

On the SS chassis what is the difference between the Elco and C23 plugs. I know the Elco came before the C23, but I'm sure there must be a difference. What kind is "better"?

The only difference is the masking plug.

This chassis has both plugs.

The green plug is an Elco.

The round plug with the mask and expander cable is the C23.

Never had a chassis with the C23 plug in it... only Elco's. Never cared for 'em... prongs break or come loose too easy. Used to be quite a pain fixing them.

Agreed "G"... If I was a King like King is I'd try his mod [img]/content/btubb/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Elco and C23 Plugs

King, you're confusing him - you have chassis with both!

Re: Elco and C23 Plugs

Nice, King! I've set up one of my spares for service in case I have to lend it out, so any house can use it.
My chassis at the center are all C23's. When I installed OmegaTek Expanders, I converted the BPP (Sparemaker) receptacle into an APS receptacle, using the same pins as the MP chassis' for pin presence (camera). C23 mask &amp; BPP wires all have bullet-type terminals, so all I had to do is remove all the BPP wires, then install the four that go to the expander.
