Gday Wheelie. Welcome to the forum.

Ive never heard of a 5 pin bungee cord socket,but if your referring to the female 5 pin power cord lead socket,that plugs in to your battery pack,you'll find them at any Jaycar Electronics outlet for around $6 bucks each.

Cheers kon61.

Goldhog22 I thought about doing this to my Lucky lark, have you got a wiring diagram for this or it straight forward? or is it better buying the conversion lead from Reeds?

Why dont you use 5pin pin panel socket from jaycar ps-0348 to take 5 pin premium diecast socket pp-0306 which are 1-65 and 3-75 respectively. You can always go for the amphenol harsh environment 6 pole connectors which are about 20-00 each plus about 14-00 ea. for dust plugs for both socket and skirt but dont really think they are necessary,they are pp and ps 1000- 1005

Hello Wheelie23,
Yes, contact Reeds Prospecting, the business has changed hands however I would think they still have the 5 pin female.
[url] http://www.reedsprospecting.com.au/[/url]
The soldering set up is quite simple because the only reason Minelab changed to 5 pin for their GP series was to prevent anyone plugging their 8+ volts battery into a SD series lower voltage machine. (Two wires are actually soldered to one pin so in effect only 4 pins are actually active.

Good luck
