Team Epic have introduced these low profile 4mm gold plated bullet connectors. These new connectors allow for more body and chassis clearance and the design of the male connector is such that there is a notch that allows the wire to be soldered on at 90 degrees to the connector itself making for a lower profile set-up. Available in sets, pairs and also just as the male battery ends.
