Amiga 1200 edge connector pursuit

[majsta]

Hi
As you probably know I m designing now Vampire 1200 as a next and logical step in apollo-team development. Trick is that A1200 connectors are hard to find. We have some but that's not enough since demand will be high. Last few days I m researching as much I can and sending bunch of mails to various manufacturers, shops, re-sellers in fact to anyone who is somehow connected to edge connectors I need. What I would like to have is more information's. Part numbers of edge connector used on some A1200 accelerators, who used them, who build them, where did they found it. Any kind of drawings, pictures that can provide more information's. Anything is good. So far I have one part number FCN-225J150-G/A and some sullins drawings.

@hese7
He have some but not in quantity we need here.

It is NOS so very limited supply. By creating new ones is not an option for now, or maybe it is if we find right manufacturer.

One man by pure accident wrote somewhere that he made his connectors in Taiwan, that was enough for me and after 3 days of searching I found company in Taiwan who do cross reference and produce Fujitsu parts we need. Eh again my persistence After all is done I ll provide more information's. Maybe there will be more people interested to start their own Amiga 1200 projects and having those connectors could bring some new interesting projects from other people.

Nah after all to conclude, it is only how some company plays a game. Difference is that Sullins will give you higher price of the connectors but lower tooling fee. In China you got opposite so at the end you have the same price in terms of low quantity numbers we have here.
