Welcome to the IHoP v.2

[dem beats 1,223]

My brain is melting from my ears and I'm pooping out all my life force.

I am telling you because schadenfreude.

Blaaaarrrggghhhhh

[nem 2,019]

Might finally move on up to cable internet.

[nem 2,019]

Sean you should be able to use battery tender extensions cables with that. If you look on amazon you can get them pretty cheap.

[nem 2,019]

Hot tub plumbed up and ready to be wired tomorrow. If all works the wife can order a new cover and I can be done with that project!

[nem 2,019]

Fingers crossed that this $200 hot tub works and makes the wife happy. Then I will be very happy I did not have to spend $6,500 on a new one.

I want a hot tub, but the thought of freezing before making it back in the house does not appeal to me.

[nem 2,019]

You can come over and use mine anytime

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.

[nem 2,019]

I have not seen just the connectors, but I will look more and let you know.

Buy a WeatherPack kit.  WAY better.

A much younger friend who I trained with in the past asked me yesterday if I would be interested in working out with him for an upcoming fight in Allentown. As much as I would love to get back into training I think I might be at the point where I would rather give advice.

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.

Not sure this old man wants to get back into full contact and kickboxing.

[///M5 2,833]

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.

[///M5 2,833]

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.  

[mikel7829 90]

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.

 That is a  generic two way electrical connector. Hope this helps....

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

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. . .

[nem 2,019]

When I crimp I always silver solder.

[///M5 2,833]

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.

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.
