Roger, the only company I know is miniatronics they have 2-pin connectors...These are not cheap.....

John has a good way of cutting 2 contacts off an IC socket and using a mating pair of 2 contacts to make a cheap and small connector.  Maybe he has a photo.

A good type of connector to use is the "jst" style.  They are commonly available on eBay in listings like this one:  http://www.ebay.com/itm/Micro-...931020#ht_3518wt_689.   The sellers are located In China and offer free shipping via China post which takes around 2 weeks.   I've had good luck and the use of PayPal gives some security.

What you need is what are called headers and sockets. they are available in dual and single rows. the spacing is 0.1" between pins. All electronics sells them. the headers & sockets can be cut apart so you can make 2 pin sets.

Gunrunnerjohn,

 

Like your custom connectors.  Home made is always good.  Tried the TCS Order Page this morning and was able to get into it.  Might have been down for maintenance.  When I need any TCS items, I buy/order from one of my LHS.

If you use any quantity of connectors, the $12 for a 4 conductor pair will soon get pretty expensive.   I like the true "micro" connectors they have at TCS, even smaller than mine, just a little "spendy".
