Jupiter Molex to Power Poles conversion


Having successfully converted the Molex connector on my Orion to PP, I
decided to proceed and convert my Jupiter as well. In the Jupiter
the power supply board is given slack to get access to the Molex
pins. This involves removal of four screws and some edge connectors.
 
See the Orion page for make up of the Power Poles with brass tubing.

Plenty of room when the edge connectors are removed.


Here are the Molex pins and two additional

       components that attaches to them.
