    Default Locking IECs

    We have recently bought a couple of LD Maui28 powered speakers & they come with blue locking IEC plugs on the power lead (ideal as the socket is near to ground level & could easily be kicked out by an errant DJ)

    My question is, does anyone know where I can get spare power leads with this kind of plug at the business end? I've found locking IECs on various sites (including CPC), but they appear to have a different locking mechanism with the latch in a different part of the plug. I'm reluctant to try these in case the latch being in a different position causes the plug to jam in the socket.

    I don't really want to use regular IECs in case they get pulled out.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks, but no. They are the sort I can find loads of. What I'm after has the latch on the opposite face of the plug the (for want of a better word) angled side of the plug as opposed to the straight.

    These are indeed the ones I'm after

    Anyone got any leads with these on that they don't want / use anymore, that I can take off them for a small fee?

    Seem as rare as rocking horse droppings (certainly as far as any of the usual suspects are concerned anyway)
