Hi

does anybody know where to get small reciever battery packs.
Maybe about 150Mah, nimh??

I bought 4 individual 120 mAh NiMh from Tower Hobbies and made my own.

You might look into getting the small FMA voltage regulator (.2oz) and then you can use 2s lipolys. A 340mah might be about the same weight as a 120mah Nimh, or go with smaller.

You need a special charger for the Li-po's though. Gets expensive overall.

www.cheapbatterypacks.com makes up packs for cheap with shrink case and proper connector for cheap. And they are an RCU sponsor. Mention you saw them here.

In the past I have found 9v Ni-cad replacement batteries at Radio Shack etc. If you cut the case open carefully you will find 6ea. 150Mah cells inside. Buy 2 batteries and 3 connectors and you can solder up 3 small 150Mah packs for about $20 total.

well I just went to the cheappacks website, it looks like they will build you a 160Mah Nimh pack with a HiTec connector for 7 bucks + shipping. I can't see taking the time to go to Radio shack, buy batteries, go find connectors, cut, clean, solder, shrinkwrap, test 3 packs , fix 1 or more, when I can spend 10 minutes on the web and wait for the completed item to arrive in the mail.

I withdraw my previous recommendation, unless you still like to reply " oh -I made it from some stuff I found" when someone asks you where you got your new widget.

Thanks everybody. I just ordered a pack out of 1/3 AAA from chepbattery packs.
