Default Deans to bullet adapter?

My RC10B4.1 uses deans, but the two LiPos I bought both use 4mm bullet connectors.

I thought I was prepaired for that when I bought a deans to bullet adapter, but the adapter I got has two male bullet ends whereas the battery has one male and one female end. In the short term I just cut off one of the male ends of the adapter and stuck the bare wire into the male end of the battery and wrapped it in electrical tape, but I want a less fire prone solution for the long-term.

I can't find a deans to 4mm bullet adapter (with one male and one female bullet end) anywhere I look. Does anyone know where I would be able to find one?

I know most people just soldier their own connections but in addition to having no soldering experience, I don't have a soldering iron. Even if I did, i'm not sure I would want to be winging it and doing a bad job on something risky like a LiPo.

I'm pretty amazed that these adapters aren't more commonly available.
