- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA5468:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA5468:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)

## Description

If you love power adapters or toys & gadgets that have magnetic connections, you can now experiment with these futuristic connectors easily. It's sorta like a DIY "MagSafe-styled" connector, with **seven 2.2mm spaced contact pogo pins** and a **straight** solderable connection to your PCB. If you've ever owned a MacBook or a littleBits set, you'll find the functionality familiar. This pitch is too small for standard breadboarding, [but We carry 2.54mm magnetic connectors over here](https://core-electronics.com.au/diy-magnetic-connector-right-angle-three-contact-pins.html).

Bring the two halves together and the embedded magnets attract, making a firm connection and assuring that all the pogos make contact. If you try to connect the contacts backward, they will repel!

Use it for power, data, and maybe a magnetic STEMMA QT or USB connector? Whatever you wish! Comes with two halves that, of course, match up nicely.
