Quick Disconnects
rock345:
Where can i find .187 disconnects? I've tried both Home Deopt and Lowes and all they have is .250. All radioshack has is in combination boxes with .250's. This is really frustrating, I've looked online but i don't want to pay more in shipping than the actual cost of the product. I'm in Massachusetts so if anyone knows anywhere please help.

I bought mine from the real bob roberts.. (www.therealbobroberts.com)
He has:
Fully insulated standard size .187 50 per bag for 5.00 each. Shipping isn't that bad either. I bought two packs from him along with some wire. Very prompt service also, I would reccomend you buy some here if you can't find them local!
Siris:
NAPA auto parts stores! :)
20 for $2 uninsulated or 10 for $2 insulated.
I really don't see the point in using insulated ones for this type of application, Besides thinking they look better.
MinerAl:
.187 is what most joystick and button switches have, right?
I've never measured to see what size they are, but the insulated and uninsulated QDs i've purchased all came from the automotive-electrics aisle at Wal-Mart. They are the right size for my Ultimarc joys and buttons.
Probably not the best deal, but equally probably easiest to acquire in a hurry.

i use the .250s they stay on fine if you put them on wrong (plastic on one side metal on other) but home depot got em cheap so who cares
