Btw, make sure you get connector rated for the current, the Andersons welded themselves when running too high, only rated for 60amps.
getting connectors rated for the right current is pretty important. i herd from a few people that the anderson conectors tended to overheat due to over current and melt the insulation (not weld themselves together) but never actually saw that happen.

and id probly recommend a 140 amp main breaker jus to be safe
