Beeman:
Hey guys..
I was just curious if someone could let me know what type of wire you used to hook up your buttons to your inferface controller? Also.. What type of crimped connectors did you use? I'm trying to build my whole order from GGG at the moment and would like to include everything in one order. Or is the wire/connectors something I'd get from radioshack?
Thanks.
Donkbaca:
Get 22 AWG wire, got 90 feet of it at Radioshack yesterday for 7 bucks.  Get your disconnects from lowes/home depot.  I use the .250, they will fit on the .187 connectors, but the .187 connectors won't fit on the .250.

Some people use cat5 cable wire
I used what I had at hand which was very thick gauge wire. Works fine the holes in the IPAC are large enough for the thick stuff too
Marsupial:
I have a minipac, so IU used an old hard drive cable plus crimps... anyone going down that route better have a long hard drive cable, things are kinda short.

ME!  I had a partial box of cat5e laying around.  I just folded the wire onto itself a few times before crimping.
