I love em! Thet solder easy,snap in and out easy, and dont require any shrink wrap. They are kinda pricey here in the u.s. but hobbyking sells them for less than a couple of bucks a pair. I usually order a dozen or so when I order lipos from hobbyking to save on shipping.
Do what I say, not what I do

So Chris and I are setting up our boats at the lake getting ready for a sprint. We get on the topic of connectors...
ME:
"So Chris, one problem with running bullets like I have is that sometimes guys inadvertently short out their lipos when hooking them up in series"
BLAM!
CHRIS:
"You mean like that?"
Here's the connector after just a split second short. I think I'll change my connection order to prevent this in the future-- I was connecting the two lipos together first, then connecting the lipos to the ESC (here is where I ended up connecting the other lipo leads together...).
If I first connect the red lipo lead to the ESC then I can't end up with a short...
Back to the soldering iron...

I think I shorted one of my lipo leads also.
My question to you is: do you simply cut off that fried lead and solder a new one
on? Thanks, GlennComment

I use SIX 3s packs in my DF40 copy to run 9s2p. I arrange the packs one on one side behind the esc, two on the other side, and three in the center. I series the three perimeter packs and the three in the center and then parallel them together. Needless to say, there are a lot of wires floating around in the same area and it would be easy to grab the wrong one.
I have a rule that my kids and wife know well:
*I dont talk while hooking up the batteries*
Unfortunatley bystanders arent familiar with my rule but they figure it out soon enoughComment

I got lucky-- my packs were fine even after that incident.
