I wanted to know that :
How many types of connectors are there except bullet connectors to join two wires
I need something which can easily be available in any electronics store around
Note: . Bullet connectors are not available and ordering takes quite a lot of time.
so suggestions needed :hatsoff:
I have heard that there is something called a 'butt' connector.. anything else
We use bullet connectors as being cheap they are able to carry high amount of current (80A max as much I know)...I think very few or no connector might be available at the price in local electronics shop!
I was just asking if there are some others like the bullet one
There are many , some popular ones are - xt60 , deans , bullet conectors and hxt connectors . Deans can take upto 40 Amps without a issue , xt 60 will sustain a 60A continually.
If there are two sets of wires you can either use deans or xt60,...If its only one set of wires, than bullet connectors or direct soldering is only the option.In fact ,bullet connectors are used in most of the connectors like xt60 because they can handle upto 100A of current.
Your normal 3.5 are rated at 50-70 A , even at 70A if the resistance increases it will probably melt the connector . If you use a smaller gauge wire it will cause more problems (less copper to handle the heat ) so dont connect anything less than 4.5 for applications above 60A .
Folks, he need something in his "local" electronic stores.
Darshan, i wouldn't dare take the chance specially when such high currents are involved. Whatever you find will always either be heavier or not as reliable (under vibrations) as bullet connectors.
(Applies for butt connectors too)

???
Hmm, Somehow missed Reply #3 :-X
Need to get some sleep i guess.
in that case if they are twosingle wires just solder them .
