1. No other unit I know of uses XT90. I know of 12V external units using 6 pin Mini fit. Since one would have to create a matching connector, it makes more sense to just use mini fit through out. Internal units use other connectors like screw terminals which I thought you were referring to. If you're talking about modded bricks then it kinda makes sense. Also XT90 is not known to be the safest due to slight physical alignment causing a bad connection. I would look for better industrial designs that are safer if we're talking modding.


3. Additional features. Just applying 12V is quite crude. You also don't want to just pump it 12V from the rail. If you don't use logic and the mosfet fail, it may short. Well, you can also use resistors as well. Mine detects polarity and warns if it is reversed, it also has an LED if power is on.


Note you can use thru hole type as well. It may be cheaper just to use 2 cheap mosfet instead of one big one. Idk, I only send the specs and an EE designed mine with me.
