I would use the 1/4" blade variety. I think the smaller versions are maybe .193" in size, but I haven't used either in several years.

Another valid option to connect/separate the control board and genset might be the tubular push-on connectors. They are also available in insulated versions and a little good quality electrical tape would serve to protect any part of those connectors that might short circuit out.

Use a good crimping tool to ensure secure electrical AND physical connections.
