Hello,
I'm designing a PCB in Eagle for a timelapse and dolly controller. I'm powering my stepper motor driver from a 12V SLA battery, but what is the best/easiest connector for the PCB?
Should I go for a DC barrel power jack? Or a Wago connector?....
Cheers,
Michael

In what post do you want the answers? Multi posting doesn't help with clarity, for you and for people searching.

Cool. Could you delete or lock the other topics with the same question? And don't do it gain.

Nope, sorry. But without cross posting you have a much bigger chance somebody will actually share his ideas.
Good luck,
Jeroen
DC barrel sockets are the most common. I don't like them but you can't argue with success
Watch out for the two different sizes, 2.1 and 2.5, 2.1 centre pin might be the most common.
Also it will depend on the current required.
