+- thinking about connectoring again. for the base TeleStatic, we need to
+ have DC power in for battery charging, pyro output, pressure sensor, and
+ load cell.
+
+ For battery charging, use the same powerpole and 3d-printed part we use on
+ TeleFireEight.
+
+ For pyro output, let's try a panel-mount single 3-wire AC socket:
+
+ Schurter 4300.0701, DK 486-1082-ND, $1.48 q1, needs a complex routed
+ opening, has lugs for soldering wires. Sides squeeze to remove if
+ if needs to be replaced. Should be easy enough to CNC mill opening.
+
+ For the pressure sensor, a 3-conductor 1/4" audio plug seems like a great
+ plan, use metal-shell Switchcraft parts. Couple that with shielded twisted
+ pair cable.
+
+ For the load cell, we need 4 conductors plus ground, so a 5-pin XLR is an
+ economical possibility.

+ female cable IO-XLR5-F-BK DK 1937-1035-ND 5.25
+
+ Gary's load cells use Amphenol PC04E-10-6P, which is $64/ea from Newark!
+ Could offer to deliver him a cable with one of those on one end and what
+ we want on our end?
+
+ Cable that's 2 twisted pairs, shielded with drain wire, would suffice for
+ the load cell and could be used ignoring one pair for the pressure sensor
+ if desired. Here's one with grey PVC jacket and foil shield:
