sick of paying $3 for deans plugs

[lincpimp]

Are powerpoles as good as deans? Seems like they have less contact area than deans... I would like to see some deans xl plugs... Maybe go to something like the ec5 connectors? They should be better than deans/traxxas/etc for handling power.

Scratch that on the ec5 connectors, though they had 5mm bullets in there, turns out they are 4mm bullets... Why does someone not make a polarized 5-6mm bullet housing like the ec3-5?

No $hit.

Wait, I know... because they wouldn't wear out as quick, so less of you buying their product, and less money in their pockets.

True...

I just read some reviews of the HC ec5 style plugs and people give them high praise for performing better than deans... It would be nice if they had the newer style split end male plugs, and not the spring collar style. I have had issues with 4mm plugs as motor wires, and gave them up for lent, so to speak. I use 5mm min bullets on my motor wires, or direct solder them. I also do not use the spring collar plugs anymore, just the split style.

Maybe get the holders and substitute the castle 4mm split plugs. They would not snap into the housing properly, but I always pull the plugs apart by the wires.
