Connectors - I have really fallen in love with PowerPole connectors.
They are robust, don't disconnect inadvertantly, and are infinitely

I agree. In the ham radio community, Anderson Powerpoles have become the
defacto standard power connectors - and for good reasons. The down side
is that in order to do a *really* good job, you need a good crimping
tool - about US$50. You can do a reasonable job with less expensive
crimpers. See also
