Introduction
What Are Amass Connectors?
What Are QS Connectors?
Frequently found in electric vehicles and marketed in conjunction with QS Motors, QS connectors are designed for high current and durability. Even in high-vibration or outdoor settings, their circular metal housing and threaded or locking mechanisms provide a secure connection. QS connectors are a great option for industrial and rugged EV applications since they frequently support waterproof sealing.
General Comparison Chart
| Feature | Amass Connectors | QS Connectors |
| Build Material | Plastic housing | Metal (Circular housing) |
| Locking System | Clip-fit or Push-in | Threaded or bayonet-lock |
| Waterproofing | No | Yes (Most Varients) |
| Current Rating | 30A-150A | 50A-500A+ |
| Ease of use | Very easy to solder | May require crimping or specialized tools |
| Common Use Cases | Drones, RC, lightweight robots | EVs, e-bikes, hub motors, industrial equipment |
| Cost & Availability | Affordable and widely available | More expensive, often EV-specific |
Where Should You Use Each?
However, because of their durability and high-current capabilities, QS connectors are a better choice if you're building something that must withstand harsh conditions, such as an electric bike, scooter, or heavy-duty robot.
Conclusion
In the fields of robotics and electronics, both Amass and QS connectors have a role:
When you require a connector with moderate power requirements that is lightweight, affordable, and simple to use, use Amass.
When you need a high-current, waterproof, and durable solution for EVs or industrial applications, use QS.
