Nema 17 UK

As ordering anything from the states costs us a fortune in shipping, ive found these on Amazon.co.uk, will they be a suitable unit?

What did you do about the series cable extension for them?

Wire them yourself. There are several diagrams floating around the forums, and in the build instructions.

i ordered some extensions from china. i am running dual enstops firmware so individual motors.

but i think i should have cut them and bought some 4 core cable and used gx16 panel connectors, and the original plug on the inside to the board.

i may still do that as i haven’t worked out final positions for things yet.

They are way too expensive, and as the seller is Stepperonline, my guess is that they’re still shipped from China.

If Amazon is handling it, it goes a bit quicker than ordering on sites like Aliexpress, (maybe 2-3 weeks instead of 3-4) and you don’t have to worry about customs. However you could save 50% ordering directly in China.

I don’t know what’s the free allowance in the UK, it’s 22 EU on the continent, so I ordered mine one every two days, to avoid customs.
