This sounds messy. Do you have a specific use case where you will need to connect/disconnect all your sensors/pwm devices at once? If not, I would just take the standard route for PWM.

EDIT: nvm, misread. I would just get the larger housings (1x12?) on hansen hobbies for structure to structure connections.
