Oh, i thought you was talking a BIG battery. HH has a 2cell http://holmeshobbies.com/product.php...&cat=10&page=1. It's there in a 3cell battery too.

You can go 3cell easily too depending on your esc. The 3-cells arent much bigger, just one cell taller. CKRC has some small 3cell 11.v lipo, so does HH. E-flite makes a 1250mah 11.1 (amainhobbies.com)

I can not help you with that question, I have only ran 3cell stuff. I would guess, depending on your throttle finger about 20-30 mins. Don't quote me on that. You might do some searching on here and what other people have gotten out of 2cell, or just buy a couple and test em our yourself.

Some guys get 45m out of it. On 2 cell you will get more runtime in a crawler because it goes slower and stalling amp draw is lower.

I really like the hyperion chargers. The 0606i ACdc is the most popular by far.
