Hey John, do you know if the power supply that comes with the MRC 969 charger would work for the Hyperion 5idp Battery Charger?
I've had a 969 since they first came out and I think it's time to upgrade. But I don't want to get a AC/DC charger if I can use the power supply that came with the 969.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Basially I want to charge power tool A123 cells with the A123 charger.

JRH, has my regulator shipped out yet?

You will need to contact a123 then, I have no clue what they use.

It has not, I was awaiting your response about the other two regs you wanted.

hello mr holmes i was looking at your chargers and i see two that im really looking at this one SKU: HP-EOS1210I and this one SKU: HP-EOS610I the onely difference i see is that they added the balancer to the eos610I and the 1210 has everything i need and the only thing i need with that is a balancer is this correct or am i missing something

You have pm."thumbsup"

Yak racer, you are correct. The 0610 has the addition of a balancer. Also, the 0610 doesn't discharge if that is something you would use.

hey thanks jrh for the quick response"thumbsup"

JRH, you have paypal"thumbsup"

hey jrh i was looking through your brushed motors and i saw this one http://holmeshobbies.com/product.php...&cat=17&page=1
i was wondering when will it be available and what the specs are on it

thanks
chad

No solid date yet, and you will have to wait for the details. I will say it is high power, very smooth, and will be an awesome motor.

motor needs
 

Hi JRH,
For a little change I am going to be building a 1/6 basher using a txt-1 chassis, gearbox and axles. I have an extra mamba max and will be running 14-16 cell nimh. What is your suggestion for a motor as I am looking for torque and plenty of wheelspeed. Currently the setup is the old evx and dual titans.

Thanks

i recently took an old 1500 stick pack and split it to make a brick pack, type( really more diamond shaped.) so what iam wondering is what should i wrap the pack in once iam done re-configuring it. i vowed to NEVER use tape to hold things on/together after my first comp http://eight01rcc.freeforums.org/ima...n_rolleyes.gif http://eight01rcc.freeforums.org/ima...s/icon_lol.gif

If you don't have anything else, electric tape will work. Otherwise get some 3" shrink wrap tube.

where can i get that? even plastic shrink wrap...

Motor needs
 

I have a traxxas evx and would like to run ~12 volts my question is what is the best brushed motor the esc can handle but it has to be pretty fast but still have some torque. Any suggestions? It would have to be comparable to a xl-5 w/12t motor running on 7 cells.

brushless question
 

Building my 1st rig. Going with a set of clod axles with a tuber chassis I'm building. I'm going to order a mamba max but not sure of batteries and how the brushless motor ratings are. I'm planning on doing some weekend crawls but some comps that I fairly close to me. I'm planning on upgrading the axles to cvd's and as I need metal gears.
Not sure about batteries or a good starting point on motors

Castle BEC and water
 

John,

I may have missed this somewhere but do these pieces of electronics like water or should I be trying to waterproof it??

I have been submerging mine today (and previous trip) and things have been going very strange, ESC keeps cutting out (Mtroniks viper ssr - waterproof) then at times the motor will run without any throttle input. When I removed the Castle BEC and ran with the ESC's BEC all was well.

Thanks in advance.

Hey John, are you still building packs? I need an 8 cell brick of Elite 1500's with a female dean.

Hey John Rob got one for you!

Can I use this lipo with my super?
