You even do not need to cut your existing LEGO wires

I am trying to find a suitable connector that will let me cut up and extend
the regular mindstorm wires, as well as to connect to custom built sensors.
I have seen that some people have used
Molex connectors
but I can’t seem to find these at my local electrical place....
Ideally, the connector would be a hydrid socket/plug, like the 2 conductor
version of an automotive cable like this:
(sorry, can’t find a pic of the 2 conductor version) but with a smaller wire
guage. The big advantage to that is there is only one connector...no need to
buy separate ‘plugs’ and ‘sockets’.
The ide here is I could cut all my existing jumpers, and put one of these
connectors on it, then just make up “extension” cords whatever length I need.
Additionally, I could make my own sensors that just had this connector,
rather than the lego standard.
Any suggestion, pointer, or ideas??
