RE: lst onboard batteries
I, and quite a few others, run this one from [link=http://www.teamhelotes.com/users/main/catalog/i8.html]Team Helotes[/link]. It does require the removal of the webbing under the tank but it is no big deal to do. Here's a picture of the mod...

Yep Team Helotes 2500mah single hump pack. Takes 5hrs to charge at 1/2 amp and will last 2 days of solid bashing without a re-charge. The flap removal is a 2 minuite job and once its in it stays in as it has a charging jack on it. Very well priced too. You will not go wrong It also allows you to remove the battery holder at the bottom completely!!

RE: lst onboard batteries
can i order those packs with a different conector end like a hitec one instead of the one on there because that one that comes with the lst wouldnt work with my other battery so i changed it out and dont wanna change back.

RE: lst onboard batteries
Brandon17317...Before doing anything go to onlybatterypacks.com...look on the left hand border...scroll down to LOSI LST, They give you half a dozen choices. The best is a stick pack, connected to a hump pack, with a charger #10548 or 10547 for same battery's without the charger for four dollars less. Then you can order the plug of you choice for 1.00 more. You can even E-mail them , tell them what you have and want to do and they get back to you very quickly. It's worth the few minutes it takes.

RE: lst onboard batteries
IMO the onlybatterypacks 2-pack setup is a little overpriced considering that you can get the Helotes pack with higher capacity for almost half the price (not to mention it saves weight). I guess it comes down to whether or not you think that the trouble of fixing your connector is worth $15.
