Does anyone have a favorite high-current PCB connector?
 
I'd like to get 20 wires into a pluggable connector, to go on a module
like this:

We need at least 7 amps per contact.
 
That litle green Phoenix connector is cool. Wires screw into it
without tooling, and it's easy to mate and unmate. But it's only 5
pins.
 
I was planning to use four of them, with two on a baby board, but that
idea wasn't popular.

The problem with those connectorfs, and the Weidmuller equivalents, is
that humans aren't strong enough to un-mate them. And the spring-push
wire clamps are flakey. And that they have no no opinions about pin
numbering.
