I use an iSonic F3900 Ultrasonic Cleaner for Dentures. The power cord is always getting in the way while rinsing out the thing.

I need a detachable power cord. I have a Weller Solder Station and know how to use it. What adapter do-dad do I need to make it so? ... Thanks !!!

OH, it's a two prong cord.

Look up quick connects or Molex connectors.

If I read correctly what you are looking for these should work.





Alcohol
Tobacco
Firearms

Who brought the chips and dip?

Alternatively, if you have a way to mount it, you could use a C13 male plug like they use on computer power supplies and then use a computer cord to plug it in.

Just ignore the gounding pin.

That might be ideal Paul !!! ... if room to mount to the base. The backside of the iSonic is gently curved and that might be a problem with that adapter though.

I can send you a "razor cord" and a receptacle from equipment parts I have.

It should be small enough to fit, and I'll send part of the housing so you can use it if you need to by trimming and what not.

OK.

Let me know, I have someone cleaning out old equipment at the data-center this week, but I will put it aside tomorrow in case you need it.

Cheapest way would be to head down to the Home Depot and buy a male and a female plug.

Something like this

And this

I would use a bulkhead mount male plug like this if you have room and then seal it with caulk.
