Default deans connector question...

Hello,

Every now and again when I plug my deans from the charged battery to my Excelorin esc I get a spark. Is this a concern or problem?

Nope. It's just residual voltage in the capacitors (I think). All my speedo do this.

No issues really....

I hardwire everything though, so I don't get the sparks as much....

Are you plugging the charger in first? It shouldn't matter but I plug the batteries in first then the charger. No spark.
