shows a very useful connector for my demountable wings, but I'm having a

deuce of a time finding the very one you display.

Can you tell me where you got it, as all my attempts to find are thwarted.

I get across to USA fairly frequently and will search the standard

hardware/auto shops.


	


    Good afternoon my friend. The connector illustrated is

    a trailer-wiring device that would be found in stores that

    offer RV and trailer parts. I think I purchased the connector

    shown in a blister pack at Pep Boys, Oriley's, or

    AutoZone. They're pretty common in a variety of pin-counts.



    Here are some 'net leads . . .

    Consider lap-splicing the wires as suggested in

    This should reduce the splicing bulk in adjacent

    cabling.

FWIW, I'll second the recommendation of the Switchcraft EN3 weathertight

connectors, which someone mentioned awhile back (see

http://dkc3.digikey.com/PDF/T071/0321.pdf). They're feather weight,

rated 7.5A, and very high quality. I'm going to use them for both trim

and wing root connections.

   Cute little fellers . . . thanks for the heads-up on these.

   They look really good.
