Connectors for control panel

[Btaz]

I designing my own control panel to connect to some electric ball valves, float sensors, and b1820 one wire temp sensors. Any recommendations on connectors to use?

I use mini XLR connectors for low current applications like those...

Cheers!

I use ones like these. You can get any # of pins depending on your needs. they just push on and lock. need to solder the wires (I imagine you will with any type of panel connector). There are others on ebay cheaper, this one had a better picture.Good luck.
