Battery Connectors

We could streamline our use of 12V batteries if we standardized on a connector. RIght now we have all sorts of incompatibilities, like different battery posts different or missing battery clips, cigarette lighter style here, Mulex there, etc... One solution would be to use Anderson powerpole connectors, they seem to be pretty popular. See: http://www.powerwerx.com/anderson-powerpoles/

There are two ways to assemble them, most people do it like this: http://www.powerwerx.com/assembly.asp
