7.4 lipo+Charger (Must both be DEANS Compatible)

As it says in the title
Money waiting!

You know that making a deans/tamiya adapter is extrordinarily easy right? And as someone with deans wired AEGs, is something you should always have handy lest you need to borrow a battery or lend one to someone.

Bottom line; rather than slow your search down and/or reduce the choices of charger drastically (I've not seen any that are 'deans compatible' out of the box as standard), just make a couple of adapters;

• Male Deans -> Female Tamiya
• Female Deans -> Male Tamiya

Doesnt adapting deans to tamia to tamia to deans negate the need for deans in the first place as introduceing tamia means your reducing the surface of contact again ALSO if your not selling me something keep it to yourself thanks

dude....he's just trying to help you...less of the attitude
All lipo chargers are deans compatible as they don't actually the deans connector to charge..lipo batteries have a tiny 4 pin adapter which plugs in instead..

below is the adapter along with the deans connector..

What lemming also means is it's easier to get the adapters and solder them for deans than to be buying deans specific batteries as you can use your existing batteries..I convert all my aegs +lipo to deans using just these adapters..

Ah soldering not something I can do and have tried....pathetically and while I appreciate your help I only plan on having one M4 which already has deans installed
