Re: Terminal blocks VS Quick disconnects

Can I see some pictures of how you have implemented it? It looks like a very diverse system and it looks like it could get pretty heavy.

Another thing to note is that many (I would cautiously say most) terminal block systems are designed for stationary mounting on a factory floor, i.e., a (nearly) vibration free environment. Automobiles (and just about any other mobile vehicle) almost exclusively use quick-connects.
