Where to buy SAE connectors?

[rocketman0]

A good alternative to SAE connectors are Anderson Powerpoles. https://www.powerwerx.com/anderson-powerpoles/powerpole-sets/ These are often used in high current applications (i.e. electric model aircraft) and are available for very high current applications.

Thank you! I didn't know they exist. After reading about the connectors, it looks like they are much better and are available in every configuration possible. I'll order some to play with.

Anderson Powerpoles are nearly ubiquitous in the amateur radio community.

If you want an excuse for a ride, place your order with Powerwerx as "will call" - and ride down to their facility in OC to pick it up.

Great suggestion!

Saw that they have a 'watt meter' that can measure almost everything. I may get one.

I use PowerPoles extensively at home for 12VDC computers (I use the RigRunners for distribution), battery backup rigs, etc. I thought about using them on the bike, but the SAE connectors are much better suited to tension, weather and compatability with other bike/car-based options. 73,

Most trickle chargers and clothing heaters use the sae connectors, so that is what I stick with.
