Just get the little ones, e.g 4 of 2 positions or 2 of 3 postions and 1 of 2 positions. They slide together very well by design and you would'nt notice they were joined. On the image of that forum I linked to, he's got 4 of 2 positions too .... you can see the joins if you look closely. Be careful to get from reputable retailers though ... cpc and digikey are good, even rs components

It's an art lol Keep looking if you will, but joining them up will solve it perfectly. PS. I'll give you a money saving tip - you don't need a board, your power connector is 6.35 pitch and so are the terminal blocks. If you snap off those prickly PCB legs from your connector, you can solder the legs of the terminal blocks (through the side opening of the connector) and you are good to go!

Well im fine with 2 pins, use trying to digikey them. no pcb, I was planning to do what you said thanks.

I just looked at the datasheet again and they actually do many poles, from 2 to 12. So I suppose you have the option of narrowing your search to part number CTB04VY/8 (which is the 8 pole one) - good hunting! My gripe with them is that they are in green only! http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1564539.pdf

I have stock of 30 amp 2 pos 7.62mm screw terminals I can sell you. I use them in some of the Gigampz breakout boards I build. They have little channels on the side so you can join them together to be any length you need as long as it is a multiple of two.

I'd be interested in these depending on the overall cost (including shipping to UK). What'd be the price + shipping for a lot of 30 2 poles?

Well without knowing your prices and shipping costs, I'd have know way of knowing that.

So for 30 $1.05 ea. Shipping to the UK might kill that savings though it would be a 6 oz package which would be $12.18 for First Class Mail. Shipping to the US would be much less. These prices assume payment in BTC. I can also do Paypal but there are additional fees of 30 cents + 3% for that.

Lets just say 15% off the Digi-key list prices to keep things simple. Shipping would be whatever actual shipping cost is from US zip code 21230. These weigh 2oz. per 10 pieces. You can use the ebay shipping calculator to estimate shipping cost.

You are right, the shipping edges what I can get them for from Farnell as they offer free shipping on orders over a measly GBP 10.00, but that by just a couple of pounds. Nevertheless, you edge Farnell out by accepting BTC so I will order from you when I run low on them as a couple of pounds is a price I am willing to pay to add footfall (however small ...) to the BTC system.

Can anyone tell if the dps2000 has 4 independent rails on the back, or are they the same rail, with 4 out puts? balancing is an issue I'm a bit worried about Thanks.

Thank you! That means I can just solder the wires together across the four, than breakout form there. makes balancing much easier The plugs are in town, fedex says today or tomorrow

Help me out. 2000 or say 2200 watts at 12v DC Push 180 amps give or take four of those can't handle that? Trying to find a heavy duty lug, but not much luck
