What kind of cables do I need?
« on: April 09, 2020, 01:41:06 pm »
Hello, I am looking for two cables. One is the power cable-adapter (the white plug with open ended black and red wires) shown in the photo. It is to supply 12V, 4.5A. Another is some kind of extension cord for the T-connector with two thick gold plugs (I guess one end female to connect to the board and another end male to connect to the LIPO battery).

For these two cables, do I need to concern about the type/thickness of the wires? Could you please tell me the name for these two cables and good place to buy them? Thank you.

4.5 A needs something about AWG 22 thickness or thicker (it depends on wire length too).

Thanks. It seems that the white connector is: SMW250-02 made in Korea. How do I find the one that can match it and available in North America?

I don't know such connector type, unfortunately (and can't help with USA shops).

Where is no international standard on connectors?

That is a 2 pin JST-XH . Current rating: 3 A AC/DC (AWG #22). The crimps can't really take a wire larger than 22AWG .You get them ready made on Ebay. The "T" connector is also called a DEANS connector.
