Default Brushless power for Christmas

Well I finally got a brushless setup. My wonderful wife got it for me for Christmas. I got a HiMaxx 2812/0650, Phoenix 10 ESC, TP 3s 1320mah li-po and an Astro 109 charger. I was so disappointed to find out that the battery and ESC did not come with connectors so I can't use the new toys until can get to the not so LHS, 70 miles away. So I get to keep flying the plane with a brushed motor and charger that takes 2.5 hours to charge the battery for a bit longer.

This is all for my Efilte Ultimate. When I got the plane everything had connectors on it, the TP 2s 1320mah li-po and the GWS ESC. I guess that's I why I was surprised. My wife is ticked. She had called and talked to the LHS owner, I've known him for 16 years, and told him to make sure I had everything I'd need for the new setup and had it shipped. Oh well.

Any suggestions on which connectors I should get? Of course Astro Flight recommended their connectors, which do look nice but also look kinda big and heavy for such weight sensative models.

Hope everyone has/had a Merry Christmas.
