Post your Battery Finds Here!! Wondering if these would be a good buy? http://www.rcslot.com/pc-radio-contr...s/DYN1429.html Anyone found any other good options? |
Might be a little on the big side. http://hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store...50mAh_2S_20C__ |

I was wondering about this one. http://hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store..._20C_Lipo_Pack Waay to big to fit in the stock location but I will make it fit. |
that one will be to big I use that on my mrc |
I took two of the single cell packs that came in some micro air-hog helicopter and in series, they are very powerful. Lasted about a minute before they stopped working, I believe there is some circuitry on them. Car still works with the other packs, and the charger still recognizes them. I will solder into a pack without the protector, but wow the power! Anyone know what they are? |
Any battery made for the micro t will fit, the micro dt or hr batterys are larger than the stock micro crawler one, which is the same as the micro t battery. |
This one should fit well, sucks that they are out of stock. http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...idProduct=9027 |

I just got a couple of these from my LHS. $14 Canadian and they fit perfect on the rear axle, even on the servo if you trim the body. http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...ty/battery.jpg |
Quick question for those running none losi lipos, what are you doing about not over discharging, just guessing when to stop? |

The esc has built in lipo cutoff. Not sure why it would matter what brand lipo you're using. My other esc's with lipo cutoff don't care what brand I'm using. Maybe I'm missing something here? Quote:

They're at PM HobbyCraft for $13.99 plus I put some micro deans on them. Tested one out last night and got about 15 minutes before it started losing power. It lasts longer and has more wheelspeed than the stock battery and it never heated up the motor or ESC more than what I'd consider average. |

I just picked up a hobby zone 300mah 7.4v for a mini cub air plane. its a little big but it fits perfect on the receiver tray and is real low profile. and it was only 12.00 bucks |
Are we absolutely sure the ESC has a cutoff? I haven't seen any literature on it. I've ran my Losi lipo several times now and it seems to get pretty damn low without shutting down. |

Also, when the stock battery is in the green LED glows. When the lipo is in, the red LED glows so it can tell the difference. |
Quote:
Yeah it can tell the difference. Would be nice to know what the lights actually mean tho. Only lights that get detailed in the manual are the lights on the transmitter. |

Shipping took awhile but I really couldn't beat the price. The site says it comes with just a balance connector but these came with the balance connector and a JST on the battery lead. So you will need to be prepared to deal with that. I just bought a LOSB0860 "Connector set" to make a charge lead and battery plug x2. So far each charge they have accepted 202-210 mah...pretty consistent. I only have 2 cycles each on these packs...at this time I would recommend...a lot of bang for your buck. Thanks for the link sgil2001.... |
Forgot to mention. With a little finess these aero-nuts 200mah 2s lipos WILL fit in the stock battery location. It's tight but it does fit. No battery lid required. Thanks |

I'll let you know how they do. |
No more waiting for a battery to charge"thumbsup" http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c7...ssman/batt.jpg |
Dang! im using a hobby zone 300 mah 7.4v |

I'm using two 240mah 20c single cell packs from hobbyking.com in series for my pack. It's just about the same size as the stock NIMH. |
I just got 2(sorry,not 14:mrgreen:) of those 2s180mah Zippy's from H.K. as well. You can't beat'em for $2.96:shock: |

Are you saying that the ESC has an LVC or that your battery does? Because Losi states that their lipo has an internal LVC: http://www.losi.com/Products/Feature...rodId=LOSB0863 "Internal circuit protection to prevent over charge and over discharge" That is much different than the ESC having an LVC. |
Ok, I just watched the I Hobby video that I think you are referring to (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tx-ZPgXwS-E) and about 3 minutes into the video he does address the LVC, but still isnt exactly clear. He just states that it will recognize the chemistry of the battery. I'll have to wait to see if it really does when I get my lipos in and get them installed on my Micro. |
