Yebbut, did you fall into the trap of assuming the direction of the braid arrows is an indicator of the current direction? That only applies in Japan, to their 100V supply.

Damnit, am I going to have to swap the connectors then?!

I know what; I'll make up another set so I have one of each direction and conduct a blind test!

Only the burn in is directional, it doesn't matter which way round new cable is but once you've used it one way for a while, you can't use it the other way.

You may be laughing but I do make and use directional audio cables. The outer braid/screen is connected to ground but only at the source so they have to be plugged in the right way....

I've also got a fishing magnet on its way, as well.

Let us know how you get on with this, I have been dying to buy one for a while but I just don't have the time to sit an research it all and am worried I will buy the wrong one...

I did a *lot* of research, and the Garrett ace 150 or 250 seem to have the best quality/price ratio - and are incredibly popular.
the 250 has slightly better features.
the only thing to watch is that the control panel is not waterproof. it needs a rain cover, and definitely won't stand to be dunked.

Today I acquired these.

3 reconditioned ballscrews which are supposed to be for a Chiron FZ12, can't really remember what mine were like so I will just have to wait until I have time before I can do a bit of dismantling to see if they are the same.
Got them for a very good price, probably at least 2K worth for £250 delivered
