Anderson powerpole connectors are just so satisfying

also genderless, like me!

@Felthry

ooh? do show, pls

@nautilee https://powerwerx.com/anderson-power-powerpole-sb-connectors this seems to be the main distributor for them. they're popular in hobby radio and RC stuff, it seems! We're using them because they're cheap connectors that can handle a _lot_ of current

@Felthry

ooh those are pretty nifty looking, also I see they come in a lot of colors for easily organizing which wire goes to what

@nautilee they do! and you can stick them together into blocks, too, with built-in dovetail joints

@nautilee they're genderless connectors so two identical ones can mate by just turning one upside down, which means you don't have to get two different parts for the plug and socket

@Felthry

fuckin *nice*

@nautilee the downside, or possibly upside, is that they require a _lot_ of force to pull apart, especially when it's a block of several of them (at least, the larger ones do)
