[NSRCA-discussion] New Deans plug

[tjpritchett at aol.com]

Well that explains it!  I've been using oxy-acetylene to solder my connections.  It's a little rough on servo leads....:0Seriously, solder can and does oxidize on the surface, which raises the melt. temp., which is something I've been dealing with lately, down at the last foot of solder on the roll.Yup; I'm both cheap and lazy  :))

I found the key to soldering anything is to tin the plug and get a generous amount of solder on the wire. Heat the wire so the solder is fluid and then lay it on the tab and let the heat from the wire/solder to heat the plug under it. If you heat the plug tabs you’ll just melt the plug. 10g is a pita anyway, that’s why my systems use 12g. I’m sure I’m short changing myself with 1 Deans, 10S 6000’s and 12g wire but I rarely ever hit full throttle so I short change myself on the transmitter before my systems see it 😂

I talked to Deans yesterday. They have black and white ones in the works. Interesting that he claims that the Dean's ultra can carry much more of a load than generally thought of and is equal to a XT90 in its ability to carry the current. He claims anything over 50 amps continuous requires at least a 10g wire. The red ultra plugs are discontinued due to supply issues. Mike Mueller

Yup....I went through 3 before getting one to bond.  I wonder what they're made of ?.....Teflon is about the highest melting point plastic.

Cool.  I've turned many a Deans plug into slag soldering 10 gauge wire to the tabs.

Upon returning to the store Monday I glanced over at the connector isle in front of where I sit and saw a new Deans package I hadn’t seen before. It’s a white ‘high temp’ Ultra plug. Anyone seen/used one before? I’m going to use them on my CL batteries since I need to put plugs on them.
