Connetctors: use deans they're the best http://www.giantcod.co.uk/deans-style-u ... p-208.html
Wire: anywear I get mine from RS

Re: electronics

I should have mentioned, I also need at lest 3 Y connectors

Re: electronics

Y connectors for what?

Re: electronics

I'm running 2 bateries in parallel and I'm running 2 speed controllers

Re: electronics

Just solder leads together?

Re: electronics

I think you would only need Y leads if you were running 4wd with your speed controllers controlling 1 left and one right wheel each. Is that whats happening? In which case I think giant cod is the place for decent priced servo y-leads.

For the batteries just use deans connectors and make a parallel circuit with them, no need for any special sort of connector or lead to do that.

Re: electronics

should have asked a long time ago but does the electonize 30a have 2 motor outputs or 1

[psycho_fling]

Re: electronics

nope but what you do is connect both motors up together + to + etc

then connect the elctronize to one of the motors

Re: electronics

1, simple, you need 1 electronise per motor.

Re: electronics

how much does an electonize 30a weigh

Re: electronics

not enough to matter

Re: electronics

what wire gauge do I need if I'm running 2 18v bateries in parrallel

Re: electronics

The DC voltage we run doesn't have much to do with the wire gauge, it's the amperes that decide.
In the industry , 10 amperes per m² is seen as on the edge.

So, how much amps do you expect to draw?

Re: electronics

The batteries say 1.3Ah and I'm using the motors from the same drill
