Hey im running 5s lipo packs with seaking 180 escs and 1600kv outrunners in my boat. I figure ill be pulling


a bit over 100 amps and was curious what kind of connectors i should solder onto the packs. Will deans be over stressed? Thanks guys.

Oh Yeah. Make the change over to the "Dark" side and ditch the Deans. Most jump up to the 5.5mm bullets but you can go bigger depending on what your going to end up with in time. I started with 5.5's and just leaped forward from there to the 8mm bullets. I do recommend standardizing if you see growth in your future. And with 8mm bullets there actually is a "long" length 8mm bullet as well as a shorty. (I like to use them guys on my lipo chargers/ Balancers)
