Same here -- I've built at least a hundred pairs of Power Poles. I use them not only for ham gear, but for all sorts of equipment that gets powered from low voltage DC.
- all contacts are crimped, not soldered (once you've decided to go the APP route, buy a really good crimp tool)
All of my Power Poles are soldered (and only soldered). I buy the red, black, and green shells and all three sizes of inserts in quantity. I use the green ones for chassis bonding.
