Hey all,
I’m looking on amazon at banana plugs and sockets for a circuit bend project. was wondering if anyone had any experience with them? or had recommendations on what to get?

4mm is the "normal" size.
If you want to go "best bang for buck" and do not care that it will be improbable to install them in a neat and clean looking manner, these are nice: https://www.ebay.com/itm/50-Set-4-0mm-4 ... SwjKFZP5TH
There's probably something similar on Amazon... avoid single spring units like the plague.

Look at the metal shaft of whatever part you are considering, here is a bad one to guide you: http://futurlec.com/Plugs/BNNSTKRpr.shtmlConfuzzled wrote:[also what the hell is on that eBay page? are those the plugs that have to be attached to the wire? what are those shafts?

Sorry, when I'm in DIY I make the assumption that soldering up your own wires is fair game. Those shafts are the female/jack component of the connector and yes, the plugs would require soldering to wire to make a cable (so would the jacks).
