Never mind I just watched a video explains how u can do away with the extra wire with bullets!!!

I like to use a "female" connector on the "Positive" side of the battery, and a "Male" connector on the Negative side of the battery. It seems this is the more popular way.
On the ESC, you need to do the opposite.
Yup hahaha just got that! Lol but I thought u were NEVER supposed to connect black and red wires together!!!
I appreciate all the help though!!!!
what's the difference if ones positive and ones negative? Don't take this offensive I just wanna learn!!!! Hahaha I'm a little confused with that! A negative charge is a negative charge across all batteries so y is it different from battery to battery? I can somewhat understand the theory just not fully grasping it right now!
What Lenny meant is that you can not let the metal connectors on the SAME battery touch each other, you will short it out in less than a second, and these lipo batteries will start a REALLY NASTY fire. I am sure you know this.
That is the reason why I said it is important to have protective caps so you don't let them touch each other accidentally. Lenny's way of using eraser caps is very resourceful. So you see, it is of paramount importance you do that.
It is ok to connect a "NEGATIVE" from Battery#1 to the "POSITIVE" of Battery#2. This is "SERIES" connection, the total voltage is the sum of these Two batteries added together.
Think how you insert batteries into a flash light, the positive of the second battery stacks against the negative of the first battery you put in the shaft of the flash light.
Hello Alfa Spirit, sorry that we strayed away from the original discussion. Do you have the HobbyWing 130A/180A HV ESC? If you do, could you be so kind to post a complete picture ? I like to see a complete picture of it, I don't get how the anti-spark plug work. ( I have made my own version but somehow I can't relate to these pictures)
BTW, your hulls are beautiful and I like the way your laid out for the build!
Look at your lipo 2s pack as two lipo cells and each cell has + & - that = 3.7 volts now x that by 2 = 7.4 volts one 2s cell and you build from there by adding another 1s pack that = 3s 11.1 volts.
But the main + & - never touch each other.
OK you need to do some home work and read some info in. https://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...-amp-Questions

Ya that helped a lot!! Haha thanks! And this seaking 130 hv is a new product correct???
It has be out for a little while,
It is more for high volt setup like 5s to 12s max.
My buddy has been using them in some boats and likes them for high volt setup.
