The DT connectors have a specific crimp tool but you can get cheap ones that work pretty well for about $50. I have done most of my racecar with a cheapie, though after a couple of hundred crimps my knuckles wish I bought an expensive one.

Thanks Paul. Yes, ciggie connectors are not ideal. I can always to Anderson plugs and an in line blade fuse.

Powering the SW mounts at 15V stops any low voltage issues...
(I also had it powering my LX200 at 18V at one time....)

Thanks Ken,
I was looking at powering my laptop from a battery. My mount power is not really an issue.
