Hello Louis.

I have not seen a youtube video either. However, I did write a small

blurp with photos on the Tec Tec Wiki.

<Molex to Power Poles Conversion by N2FQ 
<http://www.tentecwiki.org/doku.php?id=jupiter_molex_to_power_poles_conversion>>

Essentially you will need some power poles and a panel retaining plate.

There is also a sku number to order a pcb mounting tabs for the power

poles.

Let me know if the photos are not helping.
