I need a few "strain relief bushings" for a homemade 12V launch controller I am building.
The wires to the sealed lead acid battery and the wires to the igniters are typical 16 gauge, 2 conductor lamp cord or "extension cord" wire. The flat stuff. With the two wires side by side. In fact, some of the wire is from a couple of extension cords I got on sale. The other portion is from Home Depot.
(One length of wire MIGHT be 18 gauge. My old eyes are not very good. I can't tell if it says "16" or "18" AWG.)
I want to get some "strain relief bushings" (those little plastic grommet things) for where the wire exits the controller box. You have seen them: They are little, black plastic doohickeys you often see on lamps and other household appliances where the wire exits the enclosure of the appliance.
But there seems to be mind-boggling variety of these strain relief bushing things. I have no idea which one to pick.
Here is the web page at Mouser showing the selection:

Can anyone help me pick the right strain relief bushing? Is there one that is sort of "universal"?
Thanks in advance for any help!
