| which battery?
Hi Im looking for a small battery to fit in my scaler with high mah. I have a space of 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 x 1 for my battery. Imlooking for a 2500 or higher in that size. I tried my losi shorty pack from my 22 buggy and its too long. So who makes a good pack thats small but higher mah thanks

I would try looking at www.CheapBatteryPacks.com they have a decent selection of packs along with dimensions. There is a limit to sizing, the mah rating is basically dependent on size of the pack. Low mah = small size. High mah = larger size. |

You dont list what voltage you want... In this situation you should look for a 2s2p (2 series 2 parallel) or 3s2p if you want 3s. If you cant find something like that (I'm not sure you will) then you can always buy two packs the right length and width that are half of your thickness and then mount one on top of the other and use a parallel connector to combine the mah of the pack but leave the voltage. If you do use this method its probably a good idea to set your LVC a little higher (3.4v per cell) just to make sure that if the two packs dont discharge evenly that you wont over discharge one of them. Something like this might work if you stacked it: http://www.hobbypartz.com/83p-1300mah-2s1p-74-20c.html 2.9x1.3x.6 or if you stacked them 2.9x1.3x1.2 and it would give you a 2s 2600mah pack. You will have to do some looking around if you want to maximize the mah but staying within your size requirements. Last edited by SMR 510RR; 09-18-2011 at 11:36 AM. |
