On my big rock I am running the spectrum 130 amp ESC and recently purchased the program card to make adjustments. How do you spell it’s been kind of a Payne unplugging the ESC fan wire to plug the program card in all the time. Wondering if there is a better system out there, so I do not have to constantly unplug the ESC’s fan if there is a splitter, I am hoping there is one that is really short in wire length to make everything look clean, thanks in advance

Can confirm. I've purchased these exact ones in the past and they work great for additional fans. Don't think I'd use them for programming though.

Don't use your fingers to unplug the fan, use some needle nose pliers to grab onto the plastic connector. Try to avoid pulling the plug out by the wires. The wires are held into the plastic connector by a very thin clip that is easily bent & broken if you pull by the wires.

Using the Y connector is fine for running some additional fans, but running the ESC fan while using the programming card may have undesired effects. Test with wheels off the ground/workbench after programming!

Use the Y-splitter for JR connectors are best way to do it.
NO cutting or soldering of cables.

Those are the exact ones I use also / recommend.
👍

I use it for programming. BUT, I do disconnect the fan ,from the other side of the Y-Splitter when I do. (which is exactly what you would be doing if you didn't have the Y-splitter in the first place.)

Good advice.

Very possible. So just be aware.
