Not enough information - how much current, for example? I'd use a DB9 or similar for low current stuff (<1A) but if it was something that was going to draw more than that, I'd be more inclined to go molex or fast-on.
Not enough reading on your part....
Read the post...I'll take care of the engineering... Thanks for your input.
The Molex and Faston are two very different options, want to narrow it?
DB9 actually can handle more than an amp, but if you read what I wrote,
it's not enough for this application... I included it only to see if any one
had other experience using it for 5 amps or more. I did find one mention
in specs it was good for 5 amps. I could use two pins for input (10 amps).
I can't image the dialetric would break down at these low volts and amps.
It would work, but is it kosher? It's just a wild card option.... Not sure you
can get a 18 awg wire on one of those connector pins, at least crimp type.
You left out my favorite, the canon plug..... hard to picture strobe wires
in small RS232 sizes
Landing/taxi/regonition lights.
I agree mil spec connectors are best, but cost, weight and for this application
it's overkill... but agree canon plugs are great. What of the choices I gave
would you like best...
