Battery plugs, etc.
Our club and a lot of private owners have adopted Power Poles. They are very reliable, compact, and light. I like the way you can configure their orientation and the fact that they are usable in cold weather (they don't seem to crack like the "Schleicher Connectors" some of us used to use).

Our club uses 4 pin jones plugs for battery plugs, 2 pins positive and 2
pins negative for redundancy. But even this is not fool proof after
passage of time: sometimes they need to be "wiggled" to connect and
they are getting hard to find now too. What kinds of plugs are other
clubs or commercial ops using? I'm not a big fan of the nylon molex
connectors. Someone recommended using PowerPole connectors. Any
experience with these?
