I'm with Squee on this one. 5.5 is the way to go. Not only do they handle as much current as we could ever need they are the most secure plug IMO. If they start to loosen up over time all you have to do is spread the bullet prongs a little and you are good as new. I change EVERYTHING to 5.5mm so I can swap motors and speed controllers around at will and test different setups easily with no additional soldering involved.

The best deal I have found is buying the 5.5mm direct from Neu in the 10 pair pack. You get 10 male and 10 female for $25 shipping included. Go to the Neu website and check in their store.
