While we are complaining about the price of connectors, How about the price of CC's 6.5mm bullet plugs at $5.99 for 3 pairs.

That's actually not a bad price IMO. Works out to $2 per pair and there is more material with better current-handling capacity.

6.5mm Plugs
I guess it is not that bad when you think of it like that, however if you need sets of males for different motors then it adds up quickly $$$. You also end up with a bunch of extra females that are un-used.

Hmm, are you sure? What about that gargantuan heatsink and cap bank you made for the Quark a while back? (Or am I confusing you with someone else).

Yeah, precisely. There is no such thing as overkill.

I just bought 3 sets of those from Mike along with a 720i charger. I plan to switch to 10awg all around (except for Neu's wires, obviously can't change those) plugged by the 6.5mm bullets, so we'll see how I like them.

12 is fine. imo 10 is overkill
