    Deans vs Traxxas connectors

    Using 2s, sometimes 3s fairly low amp draw, which of these 2 connectors would be better?
    The reason I ask is that my SV26, lipo's, charger cords, serial, and parallel adapters all use
    Deans. My new toy, (1/16 Summit), came with all Traxxas. Are they comparable in power
    handling?

    I am on the "same boat", got Traxxas' 1/16 Slash , the only aspect I like is the larger / ribbed plastic which makes it easier to plug and unplug, but I still prefer Deans over all. I made an adapter so I can charge those batteries. I haven't any problem with my few boats that are not that powerful/fast , still use them, been there for 3 years, no melting and temp issues.
    Too many boats, not enough time...

      The sets of 2s batteries I have for the SV26 will not fit in the Summit, (too long,and getting old), however, the *new* Traxxas connector batteries I got with the Summit will fit in the SV26.
      Think I'll just convert the Summit, and it's batteries to deans. Also, like the compact size of the Deans.
