[Boatanchors] Connector suggestions

Although not totally water or moisture resistant you might be able to use 
two 4 pin trailer connectors as long as you put a male and a female (gives a 
total of 8 wire connections) on both the rotor motor cable end and the cable 
end from the controller so you can't plug them in wrong.  While in use on 
cars they are subject to wet weather conditions so they should be suitable. 
Like all outside equipment the connections should be checked/cleaned 
periodically.  Someone else might have a better connector suggestion but 
these would be inexpensive.

Would like suggestions for water proof eight pin male and female connectors 
for inline placement in rotor cables for easy connect and disconnect for 
safety  from possibility of hazardous weather. Thanks and 73, John, K5PGW
