well, my industrial electrician friend, said there are some better plugs out there, but nothing that would have the handle. and they are only slightly better. loose plugs keeps him in business.
He recommended me to solder the wires in place to keep them from coming loose, and then filling with epoxy. He said he would use just about any epoxy as long as it was not like a jb weld metal epoxy.
However the good friend that he is, he is going to bring me some silver solder, and we are going to silver solder the wires to the lugs, so they will never come loose. and I have a call out to my connection at digikey, to see what his employee price is on that potting compound. usually 50%. and just so happens he will be driving down on thursday with some other digikey stuff for me.
so if someone needs to get towed by my GMC, I should be able to use my plug as an anchor point when I am done.
