I just bought a EUMIG Mark S standard 8mm projector. I has no power cord, so please send me a PM or leave message if you have one available.

Try the link above,the question was handled before. good luck

I saw one on eBay recently without a cord and but decided not to buy it. The seller said it worked because he made two terminals to test it.

I wasn't satisfied with his feedback raiting

Did you get it yet?

Don't know how old this projector is, but some Eumigs have the same type of lead used for electric kettles.

You're right Robert, but the Mark "S" Series used the 90 degree
flat plug, the fitting is in view on front of the machine. They aren't
particularly rare,and do crop up.

I haven't received the projector yet. But from the pictures I have seen the plug pops in the front of the projector to the right of the lens barrel. Looking through a website Joerg posted in another thread (super9film.at) I found the cord, it is 15 euro + SH to Colombia, that would make it about the same cost I paid for the projector. Being in Colombia is easier and cheaper to get parts from the US than from Europe. So I will keep on waiting for some more feedback. Eventually the projector could be modify to accept the standard 3 plug cable, but I would like to have it original.

I may have this type cord, but need to see the male end on the projector first. If the prongs are 5/16 apart (from center to center), I have it.

Hi John, from my research the power cord should look as follows. The projector in the picture is not the same, but I believe the power cord is.

I see this machine was produced for 220v. I need to know the distance between the prongs from center to center; then you can get an adapter for the end that goes into your wall or power strip.

Hi John, the problem is not the part that goes to the outlet (I have the adapters)the part of the plug that goes into the projector is the one that's different from the standard types. The projector I bought is the model for the US for 120V.

The original plug has a wrap around ( I Presume Earth) metal
strap. DO NOT USE ANY OTHER PLUG BUT EUMIGS, you just might
leave yourself open to harm.
