Wattgate Connector Measurements

What I’m feeling is the pin grip mechanism keep it from accepting the full width of an IEC pin.

From what I can see from a clear casing Wattage, its spring clips are deeper form the surface compare to others in the market. That could be a problem if it cannot inserted into the inlet all the way.

@imhififan  For sure in my sample it was over 6mm away.

@imhififan I could understand making the pin covers longer in cases where you needed to access a recessed inlet, but you'd think they'd also make the pins longer too, right?

Although the pin is 12mm length, I think the clip 6mm from the surface is a little too much, 2-3mm is more reasonable, IMO.🤔
