Hi Olof,

It probably is the plug, as it's now loose in both my large batteries (of which the newer one has only been used for a short time).

You're right - I don't need an entire new cable; just a new plug and, while I'm modifying it, addition of an in-line switch to the nanoFlash part.

Piotr,

The Hirose connector being loose on the connection between the chassis mount connector and the cable connector is not a worry. We have hundreds and hundreds of those in use and never have had a failure related to that part of the connection over many years in very harsh conditions. It is more likely that the strain relief on the wire side will eventually loosen allowing the wires to twist and break off but that is rare on a properly prepared cable.

Hope this helps on that part of the issue.

Jeff

Thanks Jeff - I can confirm that in spite of not being tight, the Hirose connector never gave me any contact problems.
