I have just bought a 2400mah Blister pack. It came with Standerd Tamiya style connectors on it. The problem is, I have some different type conectors on my esc and other batt's, and peak charger. There the red and black ones. What do I do to change them to the style I already have? Do I have to re-wire the new batt's? Or is there a simpler way to changing them over? THANKS!

Sounds like you have powerpole connectors on your esc.the easiest way is to put those on the battery packs and the easiest way to do the just cut off the orignal connector and solder on the power pole connectors to the battery wires.

Not sure of your exact configuration, but I would cut the connector off that came with the batts and solder on your preferred connector. Deans work nicely, but quite a few folks like the Powerpole connectors as well. The Sermos Powerpoles are much cheaper, but take up a little more space and can be a bit trickier to install. The difference in performance is probably negligible.
Good luck !

I use Deans exclusively, have had no problems. They are gold plated, a buddy of mine read they have less resistance than the half inch of wire they replace. (If that is true kind of makes you wonder why people solder in their packs every race.) I digress, No one can ever say they come apart on their own.

HM !
What is that from ?
There is this guy at work who says that all the time. I thought it was just him being a psycho (he really is), but now I hear someone else say it ... maybe a movie or something ?

It's from a movie "Mr. Mom" from the 80's.
