For the red Anderson SB50 Connectors, we've had good success with "Helmar Parts," who sells these connectors for about half the price of any of the typical robotics suppliers: http://www.helmarparts.com/product_p/6331g1.htm

Who would have thought that lift trucks would use these connectors?

Also, check your local electronics suppliers and places like Granger. I get ours from Granger right when I walk in the door and don't have to wait to order them. To me, if I want it I want it now.... usually.

I use the large connectors, the 350A for in my car. I keep a 2500 Watt inverter with a connector, the secondary battery with a connector in my trunk and a set of jumper cables with a connector. I can start a semi with a minor switch of a wire. I also have it so another car can use the inverter just by using the jumper cables and inverter.

Just make sure you crimp, and as most do, solder the connector on.
