I too would like to hear more about your custom PWM cables. We make out own PWM cables with material from Hansen Hobbies, however those connectors intrigue me.
They appear short, white and seem to have a very snug connection with the pins on the side car.
Would love to hear more about them. Very nice wiring btw.

Sorry that it took so long to reply to you all.

We started making custom PWM cables last year after a lot of conflicts with PWM related electrical failures in 2012. We ordered 1000' of stranded 24 gauge wire. We chose the higher gauge because it fits inside of the pin crimps better, and is harder to be ripped out of a motor controller.
