Aww I'm sorry...thats a situation I'm in a lot (confused)

You can make an adapter or you may chop the Tamiya plug off the charger. Either way works

Just buy a pack of deans plugs and solder the male lead onto the charger in place of the tamiya plug.

yea just make sure you solder the right wire to the right post on the connector...look at what your leads on your batteries to go as far as positive and negative then copy it onto the charger for the red and black wires
