Motor and Power are often Anderson Powerpoles. On my MecanumBot, the Talon power leads go right to the PDP's WAGO connectors.

I always solder when using Anderson Powerpoles. Basically I use the powerpoles and solder if I have the time. If I want something quick/temporary or I want to be able to quickly replace/move devices, I use the CAN connectors.

Whatever you do, always tug-test!

We're pretty much used to soldering most of our connections, however GeeTwo is correct in this case, from I've seen and done, soldering the insert connectors might make them difficult to fit into the housing! I think if one uses to proper tool, the crimp will be pretty tight..
