USA warehouse now open. Our USA warehouse is now open! Low cost shipping and an ever growing variety make ordering from the US warehouse even better value!
bought 6 packs, 3 for myself,an other 3 for friends we love them great run time, as for the life time lasting too soon to tell, i will buy more for the price
very durable little battery, cheap enough that you can have a bunch of spares!! get yourself 4 of them and run for as long as you want with enough time to charge the others
I bought 4 of them about 2 1/2 years ago. They have gone through heavy weekly use. Time for new ones. I have had packs that cost 4x as much not last 1/2 as long.
if i am running a Cont Current 50A brushless motor with a burst current of 70a am i going to get any gain in speed or power if i run a higher C rated battery, if the theoretical
cont current of this battery is 100Amps being how it's 25c 4000mAh battery so even thought it might not be 100% efficient i have a 30a window.
i meant would a 4000mha battery with 40c rating
be faster then 4000mAh 25C battery even though
my motor can only pull 50 con and 70 burst
are the battery over rated.
well,in my opinion you have already answered your own question. honestly I don't know if over your motors max burst rating does the higher amperage make any difference. somebody cleverer should answer us this fact (alltough the laws of phisics cannot be tricked :)
Using the same power system, hence a similar load, a higher C rated battery will hold a higher voltage than a lower C rating.
A higher voltage will equate to more power through higher motor rpm due to the nature of brushless motors (KV* rpm/volt)
I notice this on all of my lipos unless the power system is using less than 3C. (3c for this battery would be 12A)
In other words yes it will make a difference. The biggest difference will be during bursts....40C will give you easier or longer wheelies. Or in my experience backflips :)
Realy good battery. Have thoes in my RC8.2e, X-Factory X-6, E-Maxx and Xray T3.
Mine are 2 years old now and some of them preform good today too. I highly recomend this battery for every rc car driver!
Hi,
I tried to charge this LIPO battery yesterday night using my ECO6 charger listed below.
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_ viewItem.asp?idProduct=11060
I have put in the configuration 4.0a and 2C (7.4v) and when testing the battery, the charged gave me a warning that it is not the correct voltage. Am I doing something wrong?

I have not used that particular charger but would not suggest charging at more then 5amps to preserve the life of the pack I use the same batteries and allways charge at the rated c ratings maybe one higher and it never has any problems
Thanks guys for the support.
I finally found the problem it was the blue cable that was not properly solder under the shrink wrap.
Problem solve, thanks.
This pack works great, although I've never personally tried the 60c before.. personally I don't think I would need a 60c pack.. I'm into RC Drifting :) Hope this helps
You'll want to be sure you don't over power your esc and motor check temps with a temp gun or you hand if its to hot to touch you know you've hot a problem

I drove once a mini e-revo. Tha batteries used in it ar much smaller than this one. So I would say NO, this one wouldn't fit in it.
