Hand Held remote control enclosure

[Ioannis]

I am looking for an enclosure like the one in the image attached. Could not find something similar, prefferably in Europe.

Thanks,
Ioannis

Although not in Europe they say they'll ship anywhere. Unfortunately the shipping is outrageous to Greece. Is there a European E-Bay?

I used the part number from the Rose sight to find it E-bay. There isn't a pix on the E-bay site but it has all the right verbage indicating it's the remote in question.

Thanks for the info. I did found initially the Rose-Bopla site but as it was on the other site I did not asked for shipping cost.

On Ebay, if the shipping cost is not an error, these people need a doctor.

Also in the UK site of ebay, the shipping cost is 4-5 times the cost of the product. And unfortunately I need only one for an IR pistol that my client need me to duplicate.

How can this cost be justified? It can't for sure...

Thanks anyway for the replies.

We order some stuff from Newark for my company and they have those empty enclosures that are shipped from the UK. I wonder if there is a retailer in the UK that might send one to you cheaper than the mailing costs you'd incur from the American e-bay site. It's weird though the Newark enclosure cost US $110 while the e-bay was US $40. You might save money on shipping but you'll have to pay a higher price for the item.

The info is here http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/530698.pdf but I'm unfamiliar with European electronics suppliers to find it over there.

Thanks for your efforts. Either US or UK Ebay the cost is still high. On RS Components there is listed from 60 to 70 something but have to register and see the shipping cost. I suppose it is free for the companies.

Will check Farnell too.

Thanks again.
