Update: Wire polarity reversed

A quick addition to my previous very positive review. I feel like I was a bit hasty with a positive review. The product arrived on time and appears to be well made. Just a small problem. When I first started using these connectors, I quickly realized that the red and black wires were reversed and did not reflect the correct polarity. This is disappointing. It is possible to use cables with JST connectors, but you must connect them in reverse order or you will short out the battery. Apparently, the Chinese manufacturer does not understand that red is a plus, and black is a minus. And., color coding is important. Because of the way they're made, you can't take the pins out of the fork and put them back in properly. If you don't care about color coding and don't mind your red wires going to your black wires, then these connectors are for you. However, that's not how you wire these things properly. Until they fix this bug I can't give them more than 2 stars.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
