Title: need male 4mm bullet plug to female hitec adapter
Post by: Admin on June 14, 2010, 02:37:54 PM: I have a battery with a female 4mm bullet plug on it.

But I need to have a Hitec female plug to go into my male headers.

I'm looking for an off-the-shelf adapter(s) to do this.

Know where I can find one? Its ok to need two adapters for it.

Its not ok to suggest me to make my own (I have my reasons) :P

This battery says bullet connector, but considering the length, I'd almost say its a banana connector:

Anyone know?

Is it OK to suggest swapping the connectors directly on the battery then? ;D
Using an adapters is just adding one more thing that can go wrong.

If you need lots of them, you may be able to order them with a female Hitech connector.

Well, those are the longer banana type plugs.

I'm not 100% sure which the battery uses, so I bought the ones you suggested, and these as well:
