[GreenKeys] 120vdc connectors - opinions?

I have a number of devices to run off 120vdc - relays, motors, etc.
thanks to Jerry I now have a nifty supply but I am trying to decide how I
want to hook things up.
I could just use a terminal strip but I was thinking about plugs and
sockets instead.
Is it still possible to find the connectors that Teletype used for 120vdc
in early equipment.

I thought about using an odd AC connector like the 120vac 20a with one
blade sideways, but I can’t find a duplex receptacle with only the sideways
slot. They all have a T slot to take either 15a or 20a plugs.

Or should I just say the heck with it and use Cinch-Jones 3-pin plugs with
chassis mounted receptacles.
Or just live with terminal strips?
