## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA5773:1` (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/ADA5773:1.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.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Ostensibly this extension cord was originally designed to allow PlayStation game players to be able to sit across the room from their game system, but what Adafruit are using it for is to connect to PS controllers and accessories without soldering directly to cables or cutting the connectors off. Since the connector is proprietary, it isn't like you can get a socket or plug from your local electronics shop.

So, if you want to interface with either Sony hardware controllers or consoles, this cable will do the job nicely! Simply cut it in half and then connect to the wires inside. [Adafruit have an example of doing just that to talk to a funky retro spining controller on the Adafruit Learning System](https://learn.adafruit.com/playstation-spinner-controller).
