Are Deans enough?

hi,

you can continue guessing...

...or go to this page, it might be the answer for your questions (it's NOT a shop):

http://www.elektromodellflug.de/hoch...romstecker.htm

it's in german, but at least you can read the figures.

I would call this guy a guru regarding RC-Electronics (chargers, batteries etc).

I have just ordered myself some golden 5,5mm plugs, and some fat 6 mm² cables (especially for motor-esc).

Let's all buy Lehner gold connectors!

Resistance: <0,05mOhm
Continious: >250A

yeah, and after that I'm broke & cant't afford lipos...

the 5,5 mm bullet plugs I've bought are affordable, u get them for around eur 2,60 a pair.

but yes, it's worth to invest in good connectors.

They cost 3 euro for 1 pair

I never gonna buy such expensive connectors. For me: "Wannabe/Chinese" Deans and Hobbycity 5.5mm Goldconnectors

they're the plugs for the motor cables. for the batts I keep deans, at the moment. I 've learned that the real "deans" are better then the chinese copies.

I want the plugs this week and not by September... I' don't order 4 bullet plugs in HK...

The real deans are gold plated. The copies aren't. Maybe this explains y the real deans are better?

yep, and the metal spring/the thing that tightens the fit, is also different. the chinese has a "flat" one, the deans has a "curve", which are easier to plug in. after 2 years of use, the deans have lost their gold plating. I think there are different qualities within "chinese" deans. left the chinese, right the original (at least I think so...):
