Status: offline 		I'd stick with the stock connector. You won't have any warranty issues and it's as good as deans. Only reason I cut off the traxxas connectors is that I'm already using deans on all my batteries and chargers, plus my friend uses deans and its handy to have batteries with a common connector in case we need to swap. More and more lipos are coming with the option to have the trx connector on it, so if you aren't already deans, stay traxxas.
