what the FLUX

Just got the lipos for my new flux and they need to have the connectors fitted. I've never soldered connectors to batteries before, and don't want to destroy a few hundred in lipos. Is there anything special I need/have to do?

Just make sure you don't let the bare leads touch each other!! By doing them one at a time, you should be able to avoid that.
Only strip the insulation off of one wire at a time...solder the first wire to the connector, then heat shrink it. Then move on to the other wire.
