I always get mine at buddyrc.com
I think they come 5 to a pack. You have to make sure you get enough males and females for your application.

I only buy mine there because I've heard that all EC5's do not interchange.

HK! They are good too. Only like $2.00 per pair. I buy like 20 at a time and that lasts me a few years.

I used both the HK's and EP Buddy's. They are compatible with each other, so no problem with mixing and matching. The HK's are $5.21 for a set of 5, so $1.05/pair. However, I believe you can only get the HK's from the International store, so after you account for shipping, they are more like $2.50/pair, and it may take 12 to 21 day to receive them. Dale's EC5's are $4.95 for 2 pairs ($2.5/pair). You can purchase a few sets with $3.00 first class shipping, or in bulk for around $6.50 Priority shipping. Even with first class shipping, it should take no more than 4 days to receive them.
