Hey all, I just noticed that I’m missing a cable on my Haslab [Proton Pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack).

There’s supposed to be a red one that goes next to the blue one there. I looked through old photos of when I first got it and it was there, so I can only surmise that I must have lost it at MCM London back in May, because I can’t find it around my room and I know it wasn’t there when attending MCM London this October. I’ve actually been having issues with the blue one constantly disconnecting, so I can guess this might’ve happened with the red one too.

I know it’s probably a longshot, but would anyone happen to have one they’d be willing to give up, or even a spare? Preferably original parts as my pack is unmodded and I’d like to keep it that way. I don’t mind paying if it comes to that.

You could contact haslabs to see if they have any spares, those 2 cables plus the [ion arm](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/aluminum-welded-ion-arm) are quite prone to coming off. Just have to have your order number and shoot them an email through their site.

Unfortunately, I got this off the grey market from someone who was selling theirs, so I wouldn’t have an order number. Would they still be able to replace it?

All the haslab cables are in a lot on eBay. Could buy it and try to resale what you don’t need. Those are real connectors. Could just buy the real connectors also

Possibly, could shoot them a mail to see what they say

Only one I’m seeing is an auction and it’s up to $50 which feels like more than I should probably be spending on it. 😛

I’ll give it a shot!

I posted this on the Facebook groups and there’s at least one person who said they might have one since they replaced theirs. I was honestly expecting a few more people, even on here, considering how extensively people have modded their packs. I’m gonna wait and see if this person can find one and, if not, I’ll shoot Hasbro a message.

I’m kinda in the same boat. My [booster tube](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/booster-tube) cables keep popping loose, so I decided to hunt down some replacements JUST in case the unfortunate happens and I came across these:

[https://www.etsy.com/listing/1553657616](https://www.etsy.com/listing/1553657616)

They look to be a great alternative if you can’t hunt down the original Hasbro versions.

I posted this on the Facebook groups and a good handful of people came through and offered me theirs because they replaced them with actual tubes and cables. Someone’s mailing me one tomorrow. I’ll need to think of a way to jam them in better so it doesn’t happen again, maybe stick some paper in there to keep them in place. I’d rather avoid glue unless it was absolutely necessary, in the event I myself decide to replace them with the real thing.
