1400, you can get them on www.boomboombatteries.com for around $20. They are for the RC18T so look in that section.

when they ask you for special building instructions and you ask them to make it do they actually build it how you want it or do they just ingore that and make it how the configuration shows it?

I'm assuming they build it how you want it as that is what you are paying for.

They're both good cells, but the IB's are biggerer There's a cute mini-stick pack of IB's out there for about $20, looks like it'll fit anywhere. SMC makes it (smc-racing.com).

I have a few IB1400 packs that I built from buying the loose cells from cheapbatterypacks.com. They usually peak at over 1800 or 1900+. They are great cells and as any cell that I have bought from cheapbatterypacks.com I am always pleased with the exceptional performance. |

I just built a 6 cell pack using the IB1400s for my SW2. I'm pleased with the performance. My son and I ran it for over 40 minutes around the house and they didn't show any signs of letting up.

Try cycling them at .5 amps and see how your run times improve. That is what I charge my IB1400 packs at. | |

I like the IB1200s, They seem to have a little more punch than the 1400s. I charge mine at .5 amps and get around 40-45 minutes out of them. Either way the IB's are great cells! Last edited by dezfan; 08-23-2006 at 12:49 PM. |
