Since I'm using a 2.4 system, I like to run LiIon batteries with a ragulator. I have Duralite batteries on my 50 and Fromeco in my 90. The Duralites are getting old, so they will most likely get changes soon. I already have an Arizona on hte 90, and have another Arizona for the 50 waiting for the new Fromeco pack. The LiIon packs are 2s2p about 4000 mah and the way I fly, they definitely last a whole day, and depending on number of flights, a whole weekend.

If you are talking about NiCds or NiMh I would look into Batteries USA or NoBS batteries. They hae a great selection and good prices. I have a few 72mhz systems left, and I have niCds and NiMhs on those.

I've been using Align 2in1 regulators with 2 cell lipos for a while now.
