<div><div dir="auto">I started on EC5 but they are difficult to separate, some cheap snap ring pliers help with separation. I went with 4mm bullets, cheap and easy but can be sparky. To help with this I use a short piece of large gas fuel tubing to shield the ground. You have to be diligent about installing the cover. I only handle one lead at a time and put the cover on before releasing it. I use Powerlab 6 chargers and and charge two flight packs at once at 30 amps. No issues. </div></div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Dec 3, 2019 at 9:51 AM james woodward via NSRCA-discussion <<a href="mailto:nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org">nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Gents,<div><br></div><div>What is the current thoughts on ESC/Power connectors?
