I was thinking along the lines of; I wouldn;t feel guilty if he spent £2 on a connector and found it was the cells at fault, but if we tell him to spend £20 - £30 on cells but the 50p tamiya connector is still the problem then he's going to be rather upset.
I'd agree with that, also switching over to deans plugs or similar cant be a bad move anyway where as throwing a lot more money away on cells without changing connectors would just end up with melted connectors!
