  • Its really cool that he posted up a tutorial on creating a wireharness. But honestly, I prefer soldering on a controller any day :).

  • But, what if you want to use the same sensor on more than one robot?

  • THen good luck doing some "micro-soldering" for when you want to fix that wire, you are going to ahve to make another wire harnes all over again.

    I rather focus on one little component, than a wire harness any day.

  • So, what about when you add a motor driver, bluetooth module, or video camera? If you start a new project, you'd either have to unsolder it all, or buy a new one.

    And thats why this is useful. =P

  • Ok, if its so useful, then why the fuck is it hard to find the appropriate casing for the harness? How would I go about creating my own casing or what type of machine would I need to make the necessary molds??

  • Not hard at all. In the info box you'll see a link to the tutorial. At the very top are part numbers for everything I used. You can buy the components at both Mouser and Digikey (links are included).

  • @blaineblodgette yes it is. Looks like Molex SL Series - e.g. 50-57-9004

  • That is not a molex connector...

  • Good, informative video. Thank you.

  • Like palmisano mentioned, you can never go wrong buying a quality tool. Sure there are a lot of cheap crimping tools out there but that tool will last forever. We have a mix of JST and AMP crimpers at work and each one was over $ 400.00.
