No worries. I appreciate constructive criticism.

I looked hard at doing a GT280 header but there are a few drawbacks that at this point are not feasible. First, the size of the header plus the associated additional circuit board, internal connectors, etc. means that the controller becomes really big. The other is that since I'm a little guy the type of headers available are limited, which also means that a specialized box with the GT280 lock receiver molded in is needed. If I could make enough units it would justify the costs since the up - front $$ is pretty large.

A PressureWork kit driving dual fuel modules would mean a 15 - cavity connector. GT280 terminals are rated for 25 amps at normal temperatures. Dual modules need 40A capability, so twin BAT + and - inputs and outputs. The brass terminals on the current designs though not optimum, do not have power limitations for our applications and not nearly as affected by temperatures.
