View Full Version : Where can I find a white power cord for my projector? AveryN 03-31-09, 10:21 AM Does anyone know where I can find a white power cord for my projector? It takes a standard PC type power cord. Places like monoprice seem to only have black. GOOCHY 03-31-09, 10:48 AM Why can't you just spray paint it? AveryN 03-31-09, 11:01 AM Why can't you just spray paint it? I don't think spray paint adheres that well to rubber with the flexibility required by a cord? If I can buy one for a couple dollars, that would be the most reasonable solution. If not, I suppose I can try that. mlowie 03-31-09, 11:12 AM Try either Office Depot, Staples or Home Depot as they may have what you need. As a side note, I was looking for a shorter power cable for my projector and a fellow AVS'r pm'd me and sent me one a no charge. What a great forum, huh? budwich 03-31-09, 11:12 AM i guess the question would be "why do you need a white one?"... if it has to be "flexed" so much???? how about using white tape??? GOOCHY 03-31-09, 12:03 PM Is the cord really going to be moving around that much to where it'll crack the paint? bud16415 03-31-09, 12:21 PM I just googled (white power cord) and found hundreds. Below is one for a couple bucks…. http://cgi.ebay.com/AC-Power-Cord-5-15P-to-C13-18-AWG-6-White_W0QQitemZ330316557392QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPCA_Cables_Ada pters?hash=item330316557392&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318 %7C301%3A0%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50 AveryN 04-01-09, 11:01 AM the local office depot/best buy/staples didn't have white ones, but Radio Shack did. Thanks! rickster904 04-01-09, 11:22 AM White power cords are easy to find. Long, white component cables are not. I ended up wraping the cable with white hockey tape. finnloag 04-01-09, 09:28 PM White power cords are easy to find. Long, white component cables are not.

I've used them for the specialty component to HDTV VGA cables. barryecohen 04-05-09, 10:44 PM Forum sponsor Blue Jeans Cable (http://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/component/index.htm) sells white component cable.
