Even a switching BEC produces heat though. If a switching BEC, being ~80% efficient, is passing 3A it will still dissipate ~3W of heat (assuming constant load). So, you can gain a little less temperature on the ESC. Of couse, if weight is the primary concern and/or the load is not high, it won't gain you nearly as much. I would say it's mostly needed for larger MT/truggies in normal bashing/racing conditions.

On the DE BECs, I don't like to use the built-in plugs because they can come loose. I just wire them like any other BEC.
