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? Don, I have used Jones Plugs and Sockets for almost 10 years. They are very robust and have served me well. I use them both in the glider and for the chargers.

Ditto Craggy Aero; been using Jones plugs for the last 15 years, simple sturdy and never failed. Tryed Andersons- tend to pull apart. PeterK
