Hi all,
I'm planning some of the electronics for my build. I want to connect various machine functions to my control box and would appreciate some advice about good connectors to do so. I want multi-strand connections so I can, for example, hookup all of my servo wires into a single plug (between 4-8 wires per connector approximately).
I looked into round DIN connectors but often I'm paying £10 for a male/female pair and would have to use multi-strand cable to make this work.
Next I considered Molex connectors (like those white plastic ones used inside your PC). These are reasonably cheap and will work well with individual mono-core wires. Main problem with these is that they are not designed to mount on an enclosure.
So.... what are you guys using? I am not looking to drop another £100 on the 16 or so connectors I need!Last edited by bluesking; 16-06-2019 at 10:56 PM.
