dunk Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Hey guys n gals, I am in desperate need of 4 pin scroller cable for a job on Monday and don't have time to make them up. Anyone have any idea as to where I can buy them off the shelf? I will need a fair bit but some is better than none. (30x 5m, 10x 10m) Cheers Duncan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzette Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 No idea where you are in the country but have you tried the usual suspects : Stage Electrics, AC Lighting, White Light or any other lighting sales/hire company??? Have you looked at hiring instead of buying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david.elsbury Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 If I may drag this slightly away from the OP for a moment, is there any reason that I couldn't make up scroller cable with some suitably sized power cable, and DMX cable, and tape them together?

Dave Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 VDC Trading are good for cables and can often accomodate rush jobs. Scroller cable is just DMX plus a couple of power cables. These have been quite substantial in the cable I've seen - from memory it looked about 1.5mm. So yes, you could bodge something with DMX cable and some 2x1.5mm flex.
