Deans connecter question

Right I've managed to find a place that does a tamiya to deans connecter but my next question is which way do they generally wire them ie which end will be female .cheers jack

 
The reason I ask is because I haven't got the aeg yet ,it's on its way to me .cheers jack

 
Normally male deans is on gun & female deans is on battery

(unless a bell-end wired it up)

Red goes at the top of the T of the deans but some deans have markings on them

Be careful about adapters - mini tamiya to large tamiya can be wired wrong/differently

(think - don't quote me but perhaps in some RC uses some adapters can have wires in plastic connector swapped over)

Had to carefully unpick & swap over a few tamiya adapter leads in past

THINK in airsoft the RED lead goes in the ROUND socket

& BLACK goes in SQUARE socket.....

(basically sure is was RED is ROUND rule)

I say I think that was right or how I remembered to check but please double check and

always double check by following the lead from battery to last gun connector that it all stays the same colour

If you can solder or if you got some common sense then it don't take long to swap over etc.......

I know you may be chomping at bit to get started but a big major major thing to remember if you or anybody messes with this

NEVER be silly and cut both wires at once - short circuit - BANG kill a lipo etc....

(really sounds obvious but I very nearly did this just steaming in and I know not to do it)

You may need to remind us what you are thinking of doing btw....

AEG = mini tamiya on gun has female thin metal socket

battery has male metal pins that go inside this

However - the plastic CONNECTOR on gun is male but pins inside are female

same on battery - pins are are male but connector itself is female

The above plus some adapters can be wired differently and throw into that the

usual you may not fully understand what I am saying/meaning or seller's description might be out

(is perhaps I got a few - wtf no that ain't what I ordered, i think)

Tamiya's are a little qwirky and all that - why I ended up buying some pins/connectors to do my own leads

Deans are Deans and easy to do but need soldering rather than crimping

(well there are 3 sizes but we use the normal deans not mini (very very few guns use) & not the tiny micro deans)

Oh yeah you are well confused now but much easier to speak to component shop or at least check their terminoligy

I bloomin' hate mini tamiya's coz though connector's may be male they got female contacts inside

so I get all argumentative saying well that female is really a male then

might explain why I got so many wrong connectors in past and thought

f*ck it I'll do me own ladyboy cross dresser connector whatever you bloomin' call that sodding thingy majig

Problem solved apparently the charger charges through the White connecter on lipo so problem solved I hope .cheers jack

 
Bloody hate Tamiya's full stop

female connector but with male pins inside

red is round or some adapters is ain't

ffs - gimme deans anyday

Had a quick look at Large Tamiya and it seems that is where

All the confusion comes in about polarity crap...

On big Tamiya the round plug/socket is not red

The big tamiya has round black polarity I think

Jeez what bollock ache these tamiya's are ffd
