[QUOTE="hokie_yj, post: 645490, member: 4238"] I'm looking for some opinions on using the Anderson SB350 connectors for continuous duty. With my transmission and t-case sitting right beside the seat they are covered by my interior panels. I've already made the interior tube framework removable for access to the trans and t-case. The switch panel and gauge display will also have plugs for easy removal. The only obstacle really is the battery selector/cutoff switch mounted in one of the panels. The batteries (twin Odyssey 925s) are also mounted under the interior panels. I'm thinking about using a couple of the Anderson connectors to disconnect the battery cables feeding and leaving the switch for easier removal. Anyone see a problem with doing this? I know it's adding a possible failure point. But everything I've read on the Anderson connectors has been pretty good, and I know they're used in continuous duty situations on forklifts/etc. daily. I feel like it will work just fine, but just wanted some more opinions. Some pictures just for reference.
