My bike is ready for a new 10-speed chain. I am thinking about using the same (which came with the bike I bought) Shimano CN-7801 chain. Since Shimano USA does not really recommend the using of quick link, I like to hear from your experience about which is a more compatible one to CN-7801 among those that are on the market: SRAM Powerlink, Wippermann 10S, KMC Missing Link, or anything else. May be the best thing to do is still using the good old Shimano 10-speed pins.

Thanks in advance.

no problems or degradation in performance with the Powerlink on my 7801 - the pins were giving me fits . . .

I've used the KMC link for all my 9 and 10-speed chains for years. No issues.
