Show us your removable links!

As the title, please could you post pictures of your removable links so I have an idea of what I should be making.

With a wire soldered between the shorter tabs.

What weight class is it for ?

[daveimi]

It's for a featherweight. I've read about the Deans Connector thing before, seeing how they were made is what I was looking for as couldn't picture it but your description above is dead good and I know what I'm doing now lol.

Get a deans connector and solder a piece of copper across the 2 poles, when cool add a cable tie

[daveimi]

Lots of people are using deans connectors for their removable links, but a number of people lost fights at the champs because they links fell out.

I used a waterproof connector in Splinter and it worked really well. They have a rubber seal to keep rain out which give it a really secure connection. Here's the one I'm using. It had a clip on top that joined the two halves together but I cut it off and just relied on the waterproof seal. You could leave it on I guess to guarantee it would never fall out.

You can get 4 and 6 pin versions if you wanted 2 or 3 removable links in one.

I personally think that EC5's are the way to go. Where deans only have a one side of the tap in connection, giving a very limited amount of friction, EC5s use inter-slotting circles and connecters. They probably have about 4x the surface area, are harder to pull out and, I find, easier to assemble than deans.

Thanks for all the replies guys that's utterly brilliant!!
