I know the most pop. size is the 30 amp rated,but a lot of fixed wingers are using them on 6s and 10s pack and they hold up what do you think about using them on my 4s 3700 pack and cc 80 esc it sure is a lot better for me I don't soder very well and you don't need heat shrink...please advise what you think...Bob G

They will be fine.

That's what I'm using. I also had them on a Logo 14 which draws LOTS more power and no problems.

APP come in three amp ratings. 15, 30, and 45. I use the 30 & 45 with the West Mountain Radio crimper. Works great.

did you guys use soder or just crimp?

crimp. the only difference between the contacts is the barrel size for the receiving wire.

the wiper is the same as is the actual plastic shell.

least expensive place I've found is impulseelectronics.com or perhaps powerwerx.com (expensive
shipping)

you have to have decent soldering skills; the connectors wont tolerate
blobs on the outside of the contact.

I solder them but if I had a crimper, I would prefer to crimp them.
The crimp connection is actually better than solder.
