Thanks for setting me straight Mike. A friend pointed me to the Mouser catalog. He also gave me a handful of the 45 amp ones and I'll test them against my "real" Anderson ones from PowerWerx. Since the article you refer was written by Tom Hammond, N0SS, I have no doubt they are inferior. I personally know and trust Tom, and anything he says can usually be taken as gospel.
Thanks again -- I've passed along the article to my friend as well. Hopefully his find doesn't come back to "bite" him hi hi.
