Cheap source of adapters, plugs and sockets for fans?

[TPCEA]

Can anyone recommend an inexpensive place to get these? I checked Performance PC and the prices are, to be frank, just too expensive. I am willing to buy in bulk if the price is right but I really just need a small quantity of sockets and plugs for standard 2-pin, 3-pin and 4-pin (PWM), and RGB and ARGB that match the headers on motherboards, as well as adapter cables for the various pseudo-proprietary and proprietary connectors used by various manufacturers to convert to the same standard headers.

No Ali Express, Alibaba, Temu, Wish or similar shady Chinese sites, please.

Thank you!

You can try moddiy.com, but I just get mine off Ebay and Amazon. Fan wires carry very low currents, well under 1A in most cases, so there really isn't much in the way of a safety risk or possibility of hardware damage.

I work for Amazon and I'm tired of being screwed over by them, as are many of my co-workers, so I refuse to be their customer anymore.

I managed to fry a 6-pin fan from EZDIY-FAB because they must use their own pinouts. I plugged it into a 6-pin hub I have and it blew.

In fact, I was able to identify the fan 12v and gnd pins, which are at the opposite end from normal. The fan still turns but the LEDs are ruined.

Everyone: For testing, I'm assuming the Extech 381676A would be a better choice than the Extech MA445 since the former has got a small probe, whereas the clamp is going to be impossible to use for checking PC parts. Correct? And I wouldn't need the wider range of the Amprobe DM73C, would I?

I can always just get minigrabber patch cables for my current multimeter, too.

Thanks, but I only found stuff on modmymods. Also on PPCs and ModDIY.

Thrift store's, some times if you ask they have a bunch which they some times just throw away or sell in bulk. And if your real lucky you get the good old ones which are made much better.
