Weatherproof connector
Anybody find a good source for a waterproof connector? Looking for more than 2 pins (ideally > 6).

Try weatherpack connectors... Mcmaster-Carr has them, as do most good auto part suppliers.

The auto industry has a good arrangement of connectors. Same pins as we use. Check out the catalog for Painless Wiring. (2,3,4, and 6 pins with watertight seals around the pins and cups.)

Deutsch Connectors DT Series
I did a bit of research a while back and found Deutsch Connectors, weather proof, clips closed, light weight, easy to use, top quality. Very happy with them on my aircraft.
