quick connect terminals
« on: January 22, 2018, 10:48:52 am »
I'm trying to set some stuff up for testing so want to connect things like fans to some sort of quick connect terminal so that they can be moved around etc. I'm sure there is something out there but don't know what to call it. something sprung would be good like speaker terminals but able to take 20A

24V, I have things like fans with their own plugs, I can use a mating half, cut the plug off.

I use 0.062" Molex connectors for low currents and Anderson Powerpole connectors for high currents.
