Equip your electronics with the industry-standard EC3 Device Connector. This pack typically includes 2 Male Device Connectors (housing + pins), designed to be soldered onto your Electronic Speed Control (ESC) or Charger leads.
The EC3 (Energy Connector, 3.5mm) is one of the most reliable and popular connectors in the RC world.
Key Features
-
Device-Side Gender: These connectors have Male Metal Pins (prongs) inside the housing.
-
Usage: They are soldered to the Load (ESC) or the Source (Charger). They plug into the battery.
-
-
Solder-Then-Snap Assembly: The EC3 design does not require heat shrink tubing to insulate the joints. You solder the wire to the metal bullet first, and then snap the bullet into the blue plastic housing. The housing covers the solder joint completely.
-
Low Resistance: Uses gold-plated 3.5mm bullets for efficient power transfer and minimal heat buildup.
-
Ergonomic Grip: The blue housing is textured and shaped to provide a secure grip, making it easy to unplug tight connections.
Compatibility
-
Batteries: Fits any battery with an EC3 connector.
-
Smart Compatibility: Fully compatible with the newer Spektrum IC3 batteries. (You can plug a Smart IC3 battery into this EC3 ESC connector; you just won't get the "Smart" data telemetry).
-
Wire Gauge: Accepts up to 12 AWG wire easily.
