Here is my Power Pole holder. It is just a piece of 1.6mm thick aluminum
with a notch in it. The notch is sized precisely to fit the groove in
the sides of the APP. I just drilled a few holes and filed it to size.
Then you make a slightly larger rectangular hole in the panel that will
pass the back part of the APP. All that's left is the mounting holes.
Here's a picture (link is case-sensitive):

Never mind, I made my own metal dohickey! Just a piece of 1.6mm
aluminum with a notch in it. Very cool, if I do say so myself!

What do you think about epoxy-ing an Anderson Power Pole connector
into a 3mm aluminum panel?
Would it be durable?
I know there is a metal dohickey to mount an APP to a panel, but it's
not available here and I don't want to wait weeks.
Or should I just go with a grommet and pigtail?
