Anderson Connectors

[Chassis 33]

Those of you who use them, what size and colour Anderson connections cos my understanding is that the different colours are unique fittings? May as well get a common one and be able to help/be helped by as many folks as possible.

Iain ,the Tuscan came with the Red connectors , which i've also used on the Chim.
I modified a "crocodile" ended Boost pack with Anderson connectors - Demon Tweeks sell ana Anderson boost pack but it's quite costly IIRC.

I believe the standard is the 175 amp, there is a reasonable supplier on ebay. Just search on Anderson.

Thanks, are the different current ratings different physical casing sized? There's 175A and 320A to choose from I think...hmmm big is best...but seems a bit excessive when most of the time it will have a only a trickle charger attached!

Doing lots of paper exercises as I can do any real spannering at present.

ETA: DOH, beat me to it! 175A it is then

I bought two connectors and a rubber cover from a seller called get connected on ebay and a set of 25sq mm jump leads from my local motor factors. Two battery connectors from Halfrauds a bit of soldering (blow torch) and heatshrink later full set car side and potable side for less than £35.
The leven and Steve heath versions all use the grey 175mm set.

I am working with George C for the TVR Challenge this year so if anyone wants more info or at a push I can put some together for you at cost.
