What size are the round crimps needed for a power cable to 12v ac-dc power supply. I really dont want exposed wires on that converter.
Thanks

Perhaps you should tell us which type of electronics you want to feed. Some have screw terminals, others use the disk power connectors found in PCs.

The screw in terminals from a 12v ac to dc supply, not a pc supply. Its looks like this is the most efficient option, but i just dont like the idea of having live wires that could be exposed. Id say crimping is a must and im just looking at what i will have to buy.
Thanks.

Plugging in an ATX power supply as-is, without any new wiring, is IMHO as simple as it can be. Gen7, Gen3 and some versions of Sanguinololu support this.
