I really didn't need waterproof or water resistant, just where they are at there are bottles of buffers near by. I wanted a slight degree of protection against a person careless with the buffer line. Nothing serious. Thanks a bunch for your help V5KRC. I started at digikey and just got overwhelmed with the number of options. I saw several I liked until I saw the price of the crimping tool ($>500
) So I wanted to see if anyone had a favorite connector that was either solder only or had a cheap crimping tool.
Thanks for the suggestion Pickles9000 I never knew what those were called so they had slipped my mind. They look like they are a shade larger than what I want but I am going to get some to see if I can make them work. I think I will try those first as they have most of the properties that I want and are very affordable.
