Deans connectors - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00S7G4A14/ instead of power poles or wagos

Deans Connectors: Hate these things. A'lot of RC's use them, but I've always had issues with them.

Anderson Power Poles: Go with these. I absolutely love these. FTC switched over to a new control system that uses these in pretty much everything, so my teams have a large stockpile of them. After having the right tool, they are easy to work with! My teams love the fact that you can create large blocks of connections, which has already been said in this thread. Allows us to remove parts easily to work on parts of the robot or to switch out. Some of the electrical students on my FRC team saw them this past year, and want to make the switch to them next season.
