Hey all,
I have a couple of the connector thingies shown in the attached pic- sorry for quality but it shows the problem which is that they don't fit breadboard power rails.
I know I can jam the wires into the holes, but that doesn't work with stranded wire. What do others do for power connections to breadboard? (No electronics required- I've just hacked an ATX PSU so I have various voltages (3v3, 5v and 12v) available.)
Yeah I was thinking something along those lines... blob of Araldite should do it.
Make small PCB

Then use solid core wire - or use a thin-enough gauge of stranded wire that you can tin the ends (and the tinned section will still fit).
I typically do one of the above, and use alligator clip jumpers from the PSU to the board. I generally will run the inputs to the positive and negative rails on opposite sides (so the alligator clips have less of a chance of shorting), then jumper on the opposite end of the board the other rails.
