My point is that the servo connector itself is just fine for our application. The "3 amp" thing is a red herring.

I think you've been smoking some bad dope.....

I use a lot of A123 rx's packs and with the little CellPro Multi 4 chargers you can do a node only charge through the balance leads. Basically all of my A123 rx packs are setup with a JR type servo lead charge connector. As someone mentioned; you run 4 amps through that puppy and if the pins are even the least little bit loose or corroded, it melts the plastic housing....
