Re: Gecko burned out

There has been some controversy about tinning versus using ferrules.
My first question is what sized wire I should be using? I am now
using 16 gauge wire that I have thinned (not tinned) to allow it to
fit into the Gecko terminals. What sized wire should I be using for
the phases going to the motors. The terminals are sized for much
thinner gauged wire but it does not make sense to use a 28 gauge(the
size that fits nicely into the terminals)wire to connect to the
motors.
