Is there a friggin' rhyme or reason to finding the right molex connector? I fully understand that they come in different wire configurations.... 2,3,4,5,.... etc. And different sizes. And locking versus non locking. Square ones and rectangular ones. Black, white, opaque...

If you buy something like the 9v power supply I got that's pictured in another thread, how do you navigate through the crap shoot of trying to look at pictures on line and try to find the female one that matches the one the manufacturer found in their random bins of male ends to use???

Looks almost like you just have to buy half a dozen or more 500 piece kits and keep them on hand to have the right one for whatever you encounter. Or, scroll through pages and pages trying to find just the right one and then pay nearly what it costs to buy a 500 piece kit to have a little baggie of 2 sent to you.

I need a molex connector 101 course.
