Troubleshooting
Plug does not fit into socket
Verify that the socket is designed for a 4mm banana plug and is not obstructed. Ensure the plug is not bent or damaged.
Loose connection
Check that the wire is securely soldered to the plug's terminal. Ensure the plug housing is fully assembled and the lantern spring is correctly positioned to provide adequate pressure.
Plug is difficult to assemble after soldering
Ensure the wire insulation is trimmed appropriately and not obstructing the housing assembly. Refer to the assembly instructions if unsure.
Poor electrical contact
Clean both the plug's contact surface and the socket. Re-check the solder joint for continuity and integrity. Ensure the lantern spring is functioning correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Strip the end of your wire to expose the conductor.
- Thread the wire through the plug housing.
- Solder the wire conductor to the designated solder tab within the plug.
- Carefully position the plug housing components and snap or screw them together to complete the assembly.
Compatibility:
This is a 4mm straight banana plug. It is designed to fit into standard 4mm banana jack sockets. Ensure your equipment or connection point accepts 4mm banana plugs. This plug is non-stackable, meaning you cannot plug another banana plug into its end.
Care:
- Keep the plug clean and free from dust and debris. Use a dry or slightly damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Inspect the plug periodically for any signs of damage or wear, especially the spring mechanism.
- Ensure connections remain tight and secure to prevent overheating.
