A'ite. I've been down an inductor rabbit hole for some time now.
I've been able to demystify a fair amount about how these things are built and designed to my own edification. But there is one mystery that I cannot seem to solve.
Who. The. Fuck. Makes. These. Specific. Pin. Terminal. Carriers?
To be specific: I'm aware of TDK/Epcos' Terminal Carrier and Yoke. It's what the guy who makes whipples uses for his "halo" inductors, as well as what's provided in the small bear "build your own inductor" kit.
But the Sabbadius Soul and Wilson Halo both use a different 1811P ferrite terminal carrier. Wilson only uses two pins, Sabbadius uses 4. Typically, these are sold as a kit with both the baseplate and yoke/"halo clip" like in the below mouser listing:
I've scoured mouser and digikey, no dice. I know that this is a commercially available part due to its presence in the aforementioned aftermarket inductors. Google searches yeild nothing. Not many companies operate in this space. I'm curious as hell, though, because the TDKs are too damned expensive and my own turreted variants aren't very efficient to make.
Any component sleuths out there that can assist me in this endeavor?
