There's nothing wrong with the Anderson connectors. But why not just use heavier cable if that's an issue instead of just sticking with the default that came in the box with the K3? Cable size should be tailored to length anyway, based on standard copper resistance tables and current draw. I really don't know why Elecraft even bothers to supply a cable, except for something to use as a "quickie" to get power to the radio for testing.
