You are about to ignite a firestorm with a debate about the merits of
Powerpoles. IMHO, there are only two kinds of Powerpoles, those that
have already fallen out and those that are going to fall out soon.
Make double-plus certain you have the blades snapped into the shell
properly. Then put tape around the junction. Cross your fingers.

Hi list,
I've noticed that almost every time I move my K3, it powers down. I
have little doubt it's the power pole connectors. I soldered them,
and I'm pretty good with a soldering iron. It seems to be plugged in
and fully seated. But why is it so fragile? I used the powerpole
connectors and contacts that came with my K3 kit.
Has anyone else notice this phenomenon? Any advice?
Thanks and 73,
