These connectors flat out suck and there’s no way to get around it! Good luck, trying to get them soldered and into the plugs on the male side! if you have any, and I mean, literally any solder excess the bullet plug will not fit into the blue plastic part and you will have to glue it. Even if you do a absolutely impeccable job soldering the connection on the male side is very very weak and I have had them come out many of times just when plugging the car in
Easy to solder and assemble. Do not fit as tight with other brands of EC2 on some of other cars and batteries though. Have had some come unplugged while driving. I also wish you could buy a few of just Male plugs or just Female plugs.
Ok, product the holes on the back side are a little small to fit the wires. Had to trim down the wire sheath to make it work properly. These hole where you insert the bullets after they are soldered on need to be larger..
Good product. These ec2 connectors were easy to solder up and were easy to assemble once soldered. The ease of assembly make these protek ec2’s one of the better sets of 1/16-1/18 connectors I have used.
Reviewers are divided on this EC2 connector set. Two reviewers found the pair easy to solder and assemble, with one calling it among the better 1/16–1/18 connectors they have used. Recurring complaints are a weak fit: one reviewer reported the male side coming apart when plugging in, another reported plugs coming loose during driving, and a third said the fit is looser than other EC2 brands. Reviewers also report that the rear wire holes are small and may need the wire sheath trimmed, and that excess solder can stop the bullet from seating in the housing. One reviewer wished single male or female plugs were sold separately.
