I know this is a bit off-topic, but I'm trying to find anyone who has experience with Anderson PowerPole connectors. What is your impression of them, and would you recommend them to others? For what prices can they be had for? I read one day a QST article that spoke very glowingly of them, but really gave no comparisons to other power connector technologies.
We used these in a 200A power supply that I was working on at Vicor. They are nice power connectors. They require a fair amount of insertion force and a very large iron to solder (or an expensive crimp tool).
I usually see these at the MIT Flea Market for around $10-20 for a two pole mated pair with two foot long cables (I believe the contacts are ~75A). You may want to try RV dealers or solar power retailers.
