I've had occasional issues like yours. Usually I just replace them.
Sometimes, for reasons not readily apparent, they just do not lock
together well. Every piece of equipment I have gets power through
PowerPoles. I have 2 12-position distribution panels. Seems like the
PowerPoles could be improved with some type of locking mechanism when
they are panel mounted.

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,
Chris
