<@778624824875941908> <@756504518417711104> this is the size of your motors, they all have stranded wire

Could you like do a male JST connector?

i crimp a lot of connectors, yes i can crimp, it takes a lot of time, around 10-20 minutes per connector

## Seve — 2026-10-12T19:28:04.150000+00:00

but crimping is generally "not cool" we could possibly design a JST to wago compat board to avoid me having to crimp

## shibo — 2026-10-13T15:40:38.429000+00:00

so should I continue with the 1mm pitch JST? I can't make the decision since I can't relate

## Seve — 2026-10-13T16:54:27.287000+00:00

Sure

## Seve — 2026-10-13T16:54:33.209000+00:00

Fine i will crimp lol

## Seve — 2026-10-13T16:56:03.361000+00:00

Honestly id almost rather solder, but crimping you could theoretically source the cables

## Seve — 2026-10-13T16:56:19.540000+00:00

Make sure it matches the nema and type for the jst

## Seve — 2026-10-13T16:56:33.127000+00:00

Theres 1mm, 2mm, ph, sh, gh etc

## Seve — 2026-10-13T16:56:50.279000+00:00

You want both sides to be the same type, will hopefully be eiaser to purchase

## Seve — 2026-10-13T16:57:20.904000+00:00

Honestly realllllly think about it though, try sourcing the cable, make sure the pins are in the right order

## Seve — 2026-10-13T16:57:41.220000+00:00

Try to source the cable

## shibo — 2026-10-13T18:12:20.419000+00:00

<@757706909351411845> is this the motor you got? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PJYL6BY
the inventory doesn't give a link to the exact motor, and I can't clearly see from your image, some motors have JST connectors, which means if you buy the correct cable you don't need to crimp

## Seve — 2026-10-13T18:13:59.593000+00:00

none of mine have jst connectors at the end, they ALL have JST connectors at the motor

## Seve — 2026-10-13T18:14:19.083000+00:00

so basically we remove the cable from the motor and replace it with our "custom cable" but ideally our custom cable is something we can just buy

## shibo — 2026-10-13T18:15:01.287000+00:00

Yeah meaning if I have the correcr jst on the cable on both sides there is no need for crimping right?

## Seve — 2026-10-13T18:15:47.612000+00:00

right and it's common enough for us to buy yep

## Seve — 2026-10-13T18:15:55.214000+00:00

which means we might need a 6 pin connector 😬
