Absolutley love this rundown on parts that actually deliver when stuff gets real. The whole idea that some connectors are built to weld with while others fit between your fingertips really hammers home how mission-critical sizing is for current loads. I've had way too many projects fail in the feild because I underestimated vibration and moisture over time. That shift from "passes bench test" to "survives 20 hours into a shift" is such an underrated design philosophy that seperates hobbyist gear from pro-grade hardware.

That sounds like the voice of experience.
