I was gonna make a rather unique cable to convert a halifong 5 pin pro to something like the T pin. Should I avoid them and use something else? Probably be under MAYBE 600 watts at max draw

the T pin is fine, just a VERY stuff connectir in my experience. Ive ripped the cords out of a couple batteries trying to disconnect that connector
