Default these batteries for revo?

i know it wont be that great to use these batteries in the e-revo because of the low mah but im trying to get some batteries that will work in all my rc's. i just want to know if they will make the truck even move or will it just be a stuttering mess.

They will work , but will be at risk of being damaged if the e-revo is ran hard. You may have better luck with using the same packs in parallel and suffer the reduction in power.

I personally would not suggest it. Besides the low run times, you'll be running the batteries hard and hot.

Dude, why shell out some hefty dough for a good rig and then power it with junky little batteries? Good batts are the key to your vehicles top performance. You are doing yourself a great disservice if you try these..................your vehicle will not perform well and you will be unhappy, dont put 87 octane in a corvette.

what about these if your determined to get something from hobbyking

Dont run them in the 1/10 E REVO , you will kill them on the first run .....
