Thor Scart - Scart, any good

Thinking of buying a Thor 1.5m scart - scart cable. Can pick one up for under £13 so seems quite good value if they are any good.

Anyone use such a cable?

Yes the Thor Scart cable is a good cable. My only gripe with it, is that it is a heavy and stiff cable which can make plugging it in slightly hard if you're cables have to make a bend near the socket. Other than that,it is probably the best scart lead around £20.00.

Re: Thor Scart - Scart, any good

they are only stiff when the room is cold! plastic goes softer when the surrounding atmosphere is warmer so the thor will be more flexible when you have had the radiators on for a while, sounds strange but it is true

i have used thors for years and they are th dogs bo...ox
