Tips for the Stealthvape 510 connector.

Yeah, he asked me to do the same. Gonna throw a Triple S together shortly and get some Amps pumping through.

Thanks for the support

Soldering heat could well be a factor. a 30w iron is enough for these. Or just go in quick with a higher wattage iron. Tin the positive, tin the wire and join them while adding a little more solder to the joint.

I've yet to collapse one of the production run but I'm only at about 10a

They're down for the time being until we know more

Think I need to pick up some lower temp solder, most of the stuff I have doesn't flow well under 300°c. The 510 I have in the Triple S I'm in the midst of building has had minimal heat so we'll see if it collapses. In the mean time I'll grab some low temp solder and see how that goes..

I think this is the stuff I've been using lately

Ah cool No rush I was just wondering. All the tests with low temp solder so far seem to be positive

I used a couple of these recently and followed the advice given with soldering and all is fine, tinned and soldered perfectly.

I used so low temp solder just to be on the safe side.
Tested them up to 30amps, Ive no reason to think they will be anything but solid.
They are my favorite 510 to date.
Nice work Rob. Hope to use them in my mods going forward

The Triple S lives, first thing I did was shove a 0.3 build on it.. ugh, ~11v, ~40A ~440w.. it held, but needs further testing, doubt I'll be putting anything lower on it, the wick just can't handle it and taking a 3S dry hit isn't something that's high on my agenda. I'll keep things updated, will be shoving a 26650 S together over the next few days, and I'll let you know how that fairs.
