MC4 Connectors - I think they are bad

Nice marketing picture. Multi-Contact (the MC in MC4) does all they can to keep the market to themselves. Contrary to what their graphic implies, there are other quality connectors using the same form factor. Amphenol makes the H4. Canadian Solar makes the T4. SMK makes the PV-03. There are probably some decent Chinese ones, but finding which ones is likely a **** shoot.
Best to keep to connectors from the same manufacturer if near the limit (~40A/600V). Don't bet that your panels use real MC4s, either.
