Hi Joe,
You made a comment about "bolted" connections. I hope I understood you
correctly, as I now don't feel so bad about using old fashioned screw
terminal blocks for all DC power. I feel they provide solid, unmoving,
and permanent connections. I do not like the push on Power Poles, as I
flat do not trust them - too many failures. Many such from merely moving
a piece of equipment and slightly disturbing the wires. And, yes - I do
know how to put Power Pole connectors together properly.
Hence, with the exception of the required plugin on the K3 - I do not
use them any longer. That plugin has a fixed strain relief installed on
it - in case I move the rig a tenth of an inch.
Bonus: No expensive plugs or tools required!
