I'm looking for a 16 to 20 pin connector set (male and female) for my home built lithium charger. I want something that is
- User friendly: Safe and easy connection (no chance of incorrect connection)
- Robust: The connection (for charging) is to be made and "unmade" daily
- Capable of handling 3A per pin
- Easy to wire. Crimping is preferred over soldering
- Rectangular or circular? Not sure of the pro and con of either format.
I have never made such a connector set before. I looked at http://www.alliedelec.com/connectors/ for ideas, but the choices are overwhelming and the description "terse" (to me at least).
Recommendation needed based on your experience in building multi pin connectors, please. Thanks.
For now I'm inclined to use this:
