U1 extension cable for the filament feeders

Hey, I was planning on building a diy drying box for the U1 with the original feeders. Therefor I need an extension cable about 30cm long and I was just wondering which kind of connectors were used…
To me it looks like jst gh is the most likely but I dont know for sure

You may have to wait till you receive your machine, then match them, rather than matching them from sight.

I am planning the same extensions. I am waiting for my U1, too, but I am almost sure that it is this connector: www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005699355153.html

ok thanks, yes that looks quite promising. If you are interested in buying them earlier too I can tell you if they fit as soon as my printer arrives.

Don’t worry, I have purchased already these connectors. :wink:

I am searching for extension cables too. Have you already ordered the connectors somewhere? I am planning to order from RS

This ist what I am planning to do: Reddit - The heart of the internet

I did yes and they fit…
However I dont really like the crimps from the aliexpress link viktor sent I would recomend buying precrimped cables and just fiddle them in the connector itself and just solder everything together it is a lot easier and also you have to be quite good at soldering (I am decent at soldering and it took me 5 connectors and 3 hours)

What are the options you need to select? Thanks in advance.

Here is what I got:
-Cable
-15 connector male and female
-precrimped cable
However you probably can get the cables from a cheaper source I just ordered them from amazon so that they arrive sooner. Also if you are able to crimp those connectors yourself you can just get a few cables yourself and the crimps over the same link as the connectors however they are really fiddly…
