As long the pins doesnt come out, it's fine. Normal for 'em 2 b loose

Just remove the connector 1st usin' a tweezer; lift the plastic pin & pull the cable out

Owh~...in dis case dats the only choice. But of course voids the warranty. Somtimes hav 2 take risks in life...hehe

The 2nd one is really elegant dude. Only if the PSU is black color...

Might b so 2 some yet b interesting 2 others. Individual preference after all rite?

Dont think it's under CCFL

Dats rite; usin' hot air blower (or hair dryer) gives perfect results compared to flames


Why not¿ Only dat it's more complicated than sleeving single ones. Can use the 1/4" size. The length of course u hav 2 measure urself

Personally, it's no longer worth it 2 buy the sleeving kits. U can get wht u really need by metres nowadays.

I was selling the Vantec's bout yr ago vry cheaply but then cost started to rocket

Btw, VIZO do manufacture Black color one . If u really want it, then can ask moderno

For ATX, add ~5cm to the measured length while for rest ~3cm

Bout 2nd question, I use the 6mm ones. Somtimes doesnt really fit snugly but doesnt look cacat either.

bobtiang : Cheapo, crude method is to cucuk 2 staples on each side and push the connector against u by a wooden block


Advanced, faster way get the PSU Connectors Removal Tool

Remember practise makes it perfect. Whn I 1st saw that kind of technique tought 'll waste too much time but after a while it was so easy that currenly by usin' the staples I can remove the pins also as fast usin' the tool

Tip : Use the normal size staple instead bigger as mentioned in many sites. All da best

Yeah, can just use such a screwdriver or pointed tweezers; almost like pulling out an IC

Yes, they're replacebable. U need either solder or crimp 'em. The former is cheaper way but takes more time. For those concerned bout the aesthetics part, u can nice look w/ either method

If soldered, later just use long nose pliers 2 crimp the flangs a bit

Act it's indeed easy 2 sleeve a PSU provided u do it systematically. Number each wires (u can skip either the 1st / last one) & also on the connector itself

U only need 2 make sure the workplace is not too windy. Otherwise while burning it might senget



Act depends on how well u'd control urself during the process. Some ppl need use both of their hands 2 hold properly while others manage 2 do it w/ 1 hand. This differs among individuals but after sometime can get used




If u r still interested PM me



It's due to temp of heat produced & also depends on the heatshrink's properties. But for occasional modders no need lah waste $$ on the hot air gun. A bit longer only
