<DIV><BR></DIV>Bob,<BR><BR>I decided to use the banana plug connectors after
going through my second glow plug connector and did not want this device to
fail at a critical time (like a contest). I keep two glow plugs ready in my
case. I have not had any problems with the banana plug, but I use pretty good
quality gold plated ones. I did not notice any differences in starting my
planes using the banana plug connectors.<BR><BR>Did you put your solution on

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thought I'd share something borne of
frustration at the field. The twist lock glo connector that
didn't. Of course, I had no spare CONNECTOR, and the Radio South Pro
Driver worked flawlessly, as it holds it's charge a LONG time...but... a bad
connector renders the best glow driver useless.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> So - friend Ray Morton sent
me a pic of his RS driver that he had modified with banana jacks on the
case, and put banana plugs on the glow connector. My experience with
banana plug setups is they loosen, and slide OUT when you need them
IN. So I needed a different solution.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Off to Radio Shack - found
some very inexpensive "barrel" wire connectors. Male/Female in a
package for $2 that did a battery end, the RS Driver, and THREE glow
connectors. They aren't designed for a high number of disconnects, as
they would wear pretty fast. But - I won't be unplugging unless
disaster strikes - then I won't care.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Works just fine...and I now
have inexpensive redundancy that lets me use the RS Driver primarily.
THAT has it's advantages.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Just thought I'd share the
tip.</FONT></DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT>
