I built myself a radion pro clone. I want to rewire the lights so that way I can connect and disconnect the fixture. Right now its soldered together. I was looking at this from radioshack
http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...ductId=2102496. Its rated at 5A, 500VAC for one minute. I have 2 180w 48v 3.75a dc power supplies and draw I believe a max of 5.4 A DC.
Will this work for me?
What else would you recommend instead if this does not work?

Re: DIY LED Connectors
Do you want to disconnect just the power supply or all the channels of LEDs you have?
I don't think what you linked is appropriate.

Re: DIY LED Connectors
I want to add what was linked to the housing I will build for my LEDs and another to the project box that houses the drivers and power supply. I will then connect the two via a custom terminated serial cable. I want to make it more wife friendly and be able to disconnect the led chips from the drivers and power supply easily. Right now its all soldered together.rimai wrote:Do you want to disconnect just the power supply or all the channels of LEDs you have?

Here is a link of my build http://www.atlantareefclub.org/forums/s ... hp?t=79655
Re: DIY LED Connectors
Are the drivers located with the LEDs or with the power supply?
How many wires do you need to connect?

Re: DIY LED Connectors
The drivers are Meanwell LDD and are with the power supplies. The drivers and the power supplies are located in the stand under by Biocube away from the LEDs. I have 7 channels and have will have 14 wires (2 per channel-one positive and one negative wire).
Re: DIY LED Connectors
I think those are not designed for your intended purpose. I'd look for another on at digikey.
