Tim,
No offense, I still don't believe that. The cable to m.18V is challenging
to insert sometimes. It has a very stringent process to be followed. You
have to carefully insert one side of the connector and kind of wiggle down
the other side. Sometimes it takes a half dozen tries and rearrangements to
get it to work. I've had probably 20 of the cords and a half dozen control
grips and, eventually, they've all connected together.

grip, although it fits fine on the M15V and the intervalometer. Since I
have one of the really long relay cables as well, I checked that and it fits
just fine. So the mystery is solved, there are two slightly different
versions of the connector one of which does not fit the Control grip. Tim
