IEC C13 Right Angle Connector

Stephen_Leak

I need a 3 metre cable, with a 3-pin mains plug on one end and a IEC C13 right-angled "kettle" connector on the other.

All the right-angled C13 connectors I've found for sale have the lead coming in, as you look at the connector and with the cutaways at the top, from the left.

It would make things look tidier, if the cable came in from the right.

I've found pictures of connectors like this, so (unless the pictures have been flipped horizontally) they do seem to make them that way around.

Does anyone know where I can get an at least 3 metre long cable with a "right-handed" connector or just a wireable "right-handed" connector?

Look at ebay for all sorts of wierd connectors like this.

My usual first port of call. The leads all come in from the left, as above.

Sorted.

I widened the eBay search parameters and found some "right-handed" ones, and they're 3 metre long as well.

I've confirmed with the seller that the photo is of the items for sale, and that they are the required way around.

And there's a bonus. For just 50p more than the cost of one "left-handed" 3 metre lead, I get 10 of them. So, use 1 and sell on the other 9, making a selling point of that they're the "wrong" way around.
