Re: How to take apart anderson connectors

I am assuming that you have no "special" tools: Go to your local Lowes or Home Depot and get a wire nut sized for 2 * 6AWG and extend the wires that way.

Regards,
Wire nuts are not something i would recommend using. Powerwerx sells contacts for the SB50's that do not require a special crimper (you can use the standard crimper that used to come in the kit a few years ago). The anderson contacts that come on the 6 ga wires from the kits require a special roll crimper. It would be far better to crimp a ring terminal on the two wires you need to connect, and then put a bolt through it and heatshrink them than using a wire nut. Also, with a good enough soldering iron you should be able to solder the connection. All our 6 ga connections are soldered, using a team member's metcal iron.
