Which connectors to use? :)

deans
tested a few connectors either them or ec3

I've actually found the XT 'deans' connectors, even though they're cheaper to source than the original deans ultra connectors (http://www.wsdeans.com/products/plugs/index.html), actually perform better both by being able to withstand a greater temperature when soldering and by having the textured surface which is easier to grip when connecting/disconnecting. Sometimes the rip-offs can out-do the originals!

this seems a good buy

I just found out the the 3 in the EC3 stands for 3mm connector you also get EC5. Does anyone think these would be good for a removable link?

i would go for deans ultra you can get them from giantcod

£4 for a pack of ten. They've got the ribs but don't have the 'XT' marks on them (not sure if that benefits PJ or Tony more :P ) and the ones that did have the 'XT' marks don't seem to be available on the site any more. Still, they're pretty cheap for the job they do.

Yeah I agree deans are the bizz. What about bulliet connectors 3mm. Does anyone know the rating for these?i was going to attach my led with bulliet connectors so when I remove my armour to fix anything inside the bot I can just un plug the led and re plug it in when putting tje armour back on.
