In search of a cheap usb A fly lead

[mikegw]

Hello all.

I am in search of lead with an USB A plug on one end and bare wires on the
other length not very important. I need about 10 of these. I can get a usb
A to usb A cable for about $5 and think that just cutting it in half will be
fine. Has anyone got other sources/ideas?

Cheers

Mike

WES Components have A-A leads starting from $2.90 for 1m.

You are unlikely to find a cheaper solution.

Will definitely cost more than $2.50 with 1 metre of suitable cable. Not to
mention time to terminate.

Buy a 2 Metre USB A-A cable and cut in half if you want 1 Metre leads.
(obviously a 5 metre cable will give you 2 * 2.5 metre leads for a few more
$)

You just cannot beat mass production these days. Besides my local jaycar

must go through a pack of AA's each day running all their farting toys. It
makes it hard to think why you went into the shop. JR Turk seems more my
speed for tools and wire these days.
