Connector Type

In this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YV_j...8kFry YAO4NTA

Are the Motor's connected to the Victor SP's via Anderson Connectors? Does anyone have a part number for which one they use on their robots? Do they stay connected well?

I'm assuming they are the powerpole connectors from this page? http://www.andersonpower.com/product...onnectors.html

Re: Connector Type

Here is the crimper that we have found to love over the years.

Shop around though, there are many vendors for these types of connectors. Remember that the cases can be reused and you have the option of only replacing the contacts.

Amazon typically has good deals on the connectors.
45A 10pack
30A 100pack

We have had few issues over the years. They stay connected well by themselves, but you can also run a zip between the two sets of connectors to keep them secured. Not a bad habit to get in.
