UK sources for whips for Jetsam (& other) boosters

I've had a few PMs asking where I sourced parts for whips for my baby booster so here goes:-

7 micron Swagelok filter on input to booster part number SS-4FW5-7 £42.40 + £7.50 delivery from www.swagelok.com. This is the part Jetsam specified but does seem to be connected in reverse.

Everything else from Undersea, 1 Forelle centre, Ebblake industrial estate, Verwood, Dorset BH31 6BB. 01202 822025. Mr Glass is very helpful.
Din 232 female adaptor Part 1080B £6.50
Din 232 charging adaptor with guage £39.00
G1/4 to 1/4NPT adaptor x 2 part 1285 £8.50x2
Mixed gas charging hose x 1.5m WP 350bar part 5044 £46.00

The way I have arranged it is with din female to swagelok filter to G1/4-1/4NPT adaptor, on the input to the booster. (both input and output of the booster are 1/4"NPT thread which you need to seal with PTFE tape or similar.
The output has another NPT adaptor to allow connection of the charging hose, terminated with the charging adaptor with guage.

I already had an O2 compatible decanting hose (from AP valves but Undersea do these too) with a button guage on the supply side so this just screws into the Din female on the booster & means I can use it separately too.

I may add a shut-off valve on the output if i find I'm boosting more than one cylinder to avoid depressurising the booster and so wasting gas.

Hope this all helps anyone who's buying a booster. If you have the Jetsam one there is a new manual available on the site with strip-down instructions with photos etc, very helpful.
