Stupid question (maybe) about quick connects

Pages: << < (2/3) > >>

Flinkly:

mine are so tight i usually rip the insulation off before i get them off, sometimes i even break the wire.  i guess it's nice to know they won't come off easily during play.  ;D

Hmm now I'm not sure how to go about daisy chaining my ground wire using quick connects. Should I use them for the ground, and if so, do I cut 2 pieces of wire and crimp both ends into 1 connect? Seems like it would be easier to just solder the ground.

eschmunk:

You could solder the ground if you wanted to but then again it won't be an easy job to disconnect everything.  Just wire up two wires into one crimp.  That is what I plan on doing here shortly.  I just order all my goodies from Ultimarc and Divemaster127, cant' wait for it to show up.

Flinkly:

yup, two wires into each connector.  you should only be using 22 guage wire, so two wires should be easy to crimp into a normal .187 quick disconnect.

Jae200:

Thanks for the help guys.. Now I just have one last question (I hope, unless the thing doesn't work). When closing the ground loop, do you want to go back to the same ground connector on the card or can you use the other ground on the other side? I'm finally finished wiring now with the exception of a few extra buttons I didn't need afterall and am going to power it up in a second.
