Battery Connector

Looking for a safe plug for a battery that will be routinely removed
from a glider. Any suggestions?

Anderson Power Pole Connectors work fine. Available in different colors
so you can make it easy to hook up without messing up polarity, ie red =
positive and black = negative, for example. They sell a crimp tool but
it is very expensive. If you are careful, you can solder the wire into
the pin...just use enough to make the connection but not spill out
forward where the contacts make contact with each other when plugged
together.

Depends on battery size and poer requirements - anything from a 3mm
co-ax plug to an Anderson PowerPole

If I were using two separate plugs I'd use two different sizes as a
tactile cue to polarity. Colour is nice if one can see clearly, so I
guess it depends on installation and daylight.
