Default RE: Ignition Battery Voltage Question

I'd opt for a LiFePO4 through a diode or BEC to drop the voltage under 6V. They're not as unreliable as NiMH cells under load.

Sanyo eneloop 4 cell AA pack (NiMh type) is a reliable power source for RCEXL ignitions, also under load.

mpascual, I just bought a 4 pack of Sanyo eneloop batteries. What is the best way to charge them.? I guess I should have asked that at the Toledo RC Expo! Thanks Capt,n
