    Just want to say a big thank you for this vid, I've just completed my own hose replacement following much of your advice. I didn't replace the wand connection and just used the existing connector for that end but added the scuba hose, proper loom and replaced the connector on the pack with a 4 pin clinko one, it's such a big upgrade. I'm a complete noob when it comes to DIY so had to buy literally all tools needed. So thanks again, this video has been invaluable.

    I purchased your lighting kit on Etsy to modify my pack. I’ve never done anything like this before but after seeing all these mods for the pack I wanted to try myself. Your video on how to do the lighting was so helpful and my pack came out just how I wanted. Thank you. That being said, this part looks to be a bit more intimidating. Although I’ve been wanting to modify the hose and upgrade the wand speaker like I did with the pack.

      I just checked the link it's working and I could add to cart. I would just assume the inner diameter would need to be 1" to fit over the 1" outer diameter hose. It's hard to get a measurement of these scuba hoses ase they are ribbed.

    Idk if you linked the wrong clinko connector for the pack but i cannot for the life of me get this to screw into the holes that are already there. I know you said to screw them each a little at a time but i cant even do that, it feels like im breaking the damn thing

    • @SquadCollector
      @SquadCollector  Před 9 měsíci +2

      Nope it's correct. To do it you just get each screw threaded in by like 2 threads. Have the plate "off" and not pushed up against the pack. Then you slowly alternating from one to another and screw them down a few threads at a time each, I've so far done 5 packs and had no issues with this method. Hope that helps!

    is there any CNLINKO 4 Pin Power female mount connectors that exactly fit exactly on the proton pack connector mounting hole? it's just that base on this particular connector, screws will be on an angle and I just think it may damage the screw hole over time

    • @SquadCollector
      @SquadCollector  Před 6 měsíci +1

      There is not unfortunately. I've been using and wearing mine for months. Zero issues no signs of damage or fatigue. You just need to do equal increments of tightening for each screw.

    I have a questions I took my wand apart the speaker t connector was not a problem. I am confused on what wires you point to use the t connector for the power I know it’s red and black , however do I just cut does wires and t connect them? From the board or do I take splice the wires and use the t connect to join them together.

    • @SquadCollector
      @SquadCollector  Před 3 měsíci

      You can cut them and put them in the T connector OR you can just splice them in place. Using the T connector is to prevent you from cutting incase you want to return it back to original. Hope that helps!
