Default batterys

Im new to rock crawling as well as eletric rc. I currently have a t-maxx. But im trying to get advice on some batteries. I purchased a venom creeper and a novak rooster crawler esc with a 55t motor. What kind of bateries should i run? i dont want to spend to much? Also what kind of run times will i be looking at?

thanks, Mike

If I am not mistaken the rooster can only take 2s Lipo. You can get 2s relatively cheap and you will not regret going Lipo....

30 to 45 minutes run times....

By no means am I an expert but it seems like this is the best way to go from listening to other members on what I wanted to buy
