Default RE: Anderson Power Pole Connectors. Have you had a failure or not?

I began using power poles several years ago and I love them. I actually converted all my connections to dean's after a couple of years, not because of any problems with the power poles, but because "everyone else" was using deans plugs. I hate deans' plugs, but continue to use them. I have powerpoles on my "stock connections" from chargers to converters and power sources. They are great and crimped connections done properly are SUPERIOR to solder joints. Please don't respond with luddite opinions, look up the data. So I've succumbed to the "be like everybody else" mentality but I don't like it<G>!

I wish the powerpoles were a little shorter and came in micro sizes for smaller connections but for 14 gause wire and bigger they are great.

Joe the connection is fine with power poles. If your battery falls out of the airframe you have bigger problems than the connection <G>!
