| The Minn Kota Plug and Recept is made by Marinco. They now have a 6 Ga adaptor for the recept side. I'm looking into the size wire on TM's. I don't have one for reference right now. Not sure if it's stamped or not on the wires. Have a call in to my friend Ed.

As for the 4 pole Ranger style plug? TH Marine says their plug and recpet accepts 6 ga and is good for 50A. Sold at Cabelas, Bass pro and others.

Propster,
The breaker is not at the TM. They should be at the batteries, as you are protecting the wire between the batteries and the TM. The proper way to splice two wires is soldering them. Butt splices make a mechanical connection, and are prone to loosening over time. Plus, you need the proper crimping tool for that size splice. Solder your connections. Do not use acid core solder. Use solder and paste flux. Make sure you tin the wires first, and then clean the flux off when you are done. Then tape and/or shrink tube to seal and insulate.You can get these at Radio Shack.
