SnowDrifter Posted August 4, 2013 Report Posted August 4, 2013 I always see people using these 1" pieces of cable with terminals on either end going from one, to the next, to the next, and so on. Why spend so much time doing that vs. just using jumpers like these? http://www.vetco.net/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=6545&gclid=CNr04K764rgCFeU5Qgod-ScAsg Here's what I'm talking about. Sorry Tony C, going to pick on you for this one.

hdorre Posted August 4, 2013 Report Posted August 4, 2013 Probably because most people have wire and terminals laying around. I know I do because I ALWAYS try to buy extra.. Just in case.

Wicks Posted August 4, 2013 Report Posted August 4, 2013 Wow, those jumpers are definitely the way to go! As was said ^^ most people have plenty of wire and terminals when they buy these terminal blocks and never think to also get jumpers cuz they dont know about them. The BIGGER question is why those who sell terminal blocks don't also offer jumpers....?

Rolow Posted August 7, 2013 Report Posted August 7, 2013 The jumpers are also available at Fry s electronics if any one has them local. http://www.frys.com/product/6010078?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG i swear I've seen them at home depot but i cant find them on there site.
n8ball2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Report Posted August 7, 2013 I know when I did mine they didnt have the jumpers available and I wasnt going to spend the 15 bucks to have them shipped when I spent less than that for the barrier strips THERE IS NO BUILD LOG! 1998 Chevy Silverado ext cab Alpine CDA-9887 4 Team Fi 15s 2 Ampere Audio TFE 8.0 2 Ampere Audio 150.4 3 Digital Designs CS6.5 component sets Dual Mechman 370XP Elite alternators inbound! 8 XS Power d3400 6 XS power d680 Second Skin Stinger Tsunami Wiring Sky High A Real Voltmeter not a piece of shit stinger.
snafu Posted August 7, 2013 Report Posted August 7, 2013 I converted to the jumpers about 5 seconds after I took that photo. Tony Candela - SMD Sales & Marketing Email me at [email protected] to learn about becoming an SMD Partner!
