    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Should add i only need 16-18ga or so, those connectors work to 8 rather nicely.

    The XT60 connector above allows shrink tube to fit in the connector and grab it while then grabbing the wire. Pretty weather proof and definitely mechanically sound. Use them on my RC truck which gets its ass raped.

    Mechanical is one thing, electrical another.

    Crimping is one of THE best connections. I don't know if you just want the connectors or them wired. I've never seen one bare, only molded with leads, such as. . . http://www.delcity.net/store/Molded-Connectors-without-a-Loop/p_8593 I know. Just have always felt better about solder. Obviously conditions on a sled with temp, vibe, and lots of abrupt motion aren't easy on anything. Soldering into a solid connector with strain relief and plugging just feels the most secure to me. I have crimps all of the sled. It came that way. Hell the damn thing is riveted together, lol.

    I MUCH prefer any soldered connector. I REALLY wish these came in other than 2 lead connections. Give me 1, 2, 3 and I'd rewire every connection on the sled.

    Being my motor is new and on a bench that ain't happening anytime soon.

    I don't trust crimp so much either. Compounded in when I change one thing, then I should change the rest. If I were doing that there are about 8 other strange connectors I'd need to fabricate which I would in an ideal world....but if I am doing that much work I am getting a Poo raceshop 797 first.

    Appreciate the help. I am just dumbfounded that even with a fair amount of searching online and trips to 2 autoparts stores, Northern Tool & a hardware store I haven't found any or got any leads.

    I just want the connectors, the wire is in place. Trying to avoid extra splices since any and all connections on my sled I expect to fail. Buy a WeatherPack kit. WAY better. Regrettably the sled has one male and one female I want to use and they are on two different cables. Both terminate in blocks such that I'd be replacing 5 connectors at a time. Have weatherpacks where I can just replace all.

    So, wtf are these connectors called/labeled so I can buy some. Have a wire that would mate with this: ie, standard SAE bullet connector. I just want to buy male/female ends for single wires. as I have a multi-plug unit I need to add a wire too.

    I didn't watch it, don't plan to, sure the media fucked this up. Death by another person isn't ever justified however neither is putting oneself in a position that leads to it. Obviously there are exceptions where it is completely justified, like Obama Bin Laden and such. Above I was just referring to normal human beings, not monsters.

    I have a non-oversized 3 car garage, last week inside it was: 4 snowmobiles, an enclosed trailer, my Escalade, the wives XC90, 8 bicycles, 2 big wheels, a 19' canoe, lawnmower, a Unisaw, my workbench, leafblower, full set of yard tools, obviously my mechanical tools, about 1/2 of a parted out snowmobile, 8 rubbermaid tubs of boat stuff, a 6" metal lathe, enough empty boxes to ship the 40 things I have on CL/Ebay atm, air compressor, and a ton of other shit. Was FUCKING packed.

    Truth! We had 20mph winds today, 5 damn trucks, and the receiver is on vacation. Guess who's scrawny ass had to play fork truck bitch all day. The drive home with the heated seat killed me. Then I took a bubble bath. The bubble bath sounds gay. I thought so too
