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

Phoenix  do make 20 pin version (as two rows of ten) with 10 amp per pin on

 Do they actually make them m, as in somebody has them for sale, or are they
just listed in a catalogue?
 Connector catalogs are full of things that they would love to make for you
