Probe cable v2 with full color silicone wire

The silicone coated wire people have upped their game and have actually not ugly colors of wire now. We could have a fully color coded probe cable.

Previously many colors were kind of an ugly pastel Easter theme situation (blue, green, brown, etc).

The catch is we have to buy MOQ of the 7 colors we don’t already use, and they don’t sell cuts or samples. Kind of a gamble.

I think this is the same wire that I keep on hand. Either way, im excited for the new cables! Color Code EVERYTHING :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

We are slow sometimes, but we get there. Samples of color coded probe cables arrived this morning.

I have to say, I am extremely pleased with the color of the wire and the match with the shrink tube labels. It’s been a years long quest to find not-ugly silicone coated wire, and today we’ve done it!

That’s a good thing, because we had to buy MOQ (a reel) of all the colors to make a sample :slight_smile:

And please make these available with and without the IC hooks. I have many many hooks.

That looks lovely! After pay-day I will make an order for new probe cable and case. Didnt want to make order for just one item.

There are only 5 sample cables :slight_smile: Order the case, open a support ticket, and ask to have one.

@grymoire can I also send you a cable?

That is beautiful!

If still available, I’d love to add one to an order. However, I am in no rush, so if there are being productized, I am happy to wait.

I just put in my order last night. Got any more of these left?

Sure, if your order hasn’t shipped please open a support ticket. I think this is the last one.

Just throwing out a a suggestion to consider, because it’s time-sensitive: This would have to be accepted or rejected BEFORE production runs of the full color silicon wire probe cable and full-color silicon wire auxilliary cables.

TLDR: Shift the brown wire so it’s next to the black wire. Why? much closer alignment of relative order vs. resistor chart.

Here’s the full change list:

Conn v1 v2
Vcc Red Red 2
IO0 Orange Orange 3
IO1 Yellow Yellow 4
IO2 Green Green 5
IO3 Blue Blue 6
IO4 Violet Violet 7
IO5 Brown Grey 18
IO6 Grey White 89
IO7 White Brown 91
GND Black Black 0

Small change … But maybe the benefit isn’t worth any potential confusion. Depends on how many grey-wire sets were sold?

Putting it out here so those better equipped to decide can weigh in.

You only have one challenge remaining… color-matched hooks! :wink:

(I’m joking … it would not be practical)
