Haven't tried them, I would likely do these.... http://www.cheapbatterypacks.com/lip...99mah/65C.aspx if I was doing a pack like that. Although, what you linked is ~1/4 the price. |

I have a couple of these packs that I run in my mini with the losi brushless system. great packs at an outstanding price. On a side note you have to watch out when ordering from the cheap battery packs. if your order get lost they will keep your money and tell you to eat a Dick even if you buy the shipping insurance. I have not run one of their packs but would never risk my money with them.

Violator - are you running the Losi BL crawler on 3S? How's it working and do you use an external BEC? | |

Local club mates and I have ran the 2s and 3s packs now. The 3s packs are a great size and have decent punch.

That's what I wanted to hear, just received one today in the mail and have yet to test it. Looked like a great price so I decided to try one out for now, I do t expect more than 7-8 mins run time, just looking for small footprint and decent power at a great price | |

I run the Gens Ace 800 and 1300s and they are excellent.

I have 8 of those for my XR10. Running gates normally as if I were in a comp, I can run continuously for 22 minutes. The punch is awsome for 25C... and they will charge to about 470mah. That said... I don't run more than one course on a battery at a comp. These were the batteries I used at battlegrounds |

They also can charge up to 5C. So 450mAh this battery can be charged up to 2.2 Amps vs .4 Amps |

| The reason I pointed out the CBP packs is the "C" rating. My son was running lower "C" packs in his rigs until I loaned some of mine that had higher ratings. We could both see the difference. |

So, if you never ran their packs, does this mean your only order with CBP was lost, or was it someone you know?? | |

just an update on my part.... I got a chance to run several cycles on these today... Power is excellent.........(for 25c)....Very comparable if not the same as TP 45c Charge times are great at just over 15 mins @ 2.2 amps (5c) Packs seem to take anywhere from 462-471 mah everytime All in all a very good pack at a great price. If your looking for a small pack with great punch at a rock bottom price, these are a great contender |
