Is there a certain type or manufacturer that I should be considering?

If they do not have the standard Tamiya plugs on them is it difficult to replace the connector on the battery end (I have a bag of new male/female Tamiya ends).

I was looking at Tower Hobbies because shipping on the charger is free (Duratrax Onyx 245 AC/DC Dual Balancing Charger). Is there a better site to order both charger and batteries from?

Thanks,

Pat
You can get the tower hobbies 3000mah NIMH battery's at a great price...if you want better go with the duratrax onyx NIMH packs they come with the tamiya plugs also as does the tower hobbies packs but the onyx ones come in higher MAH ratings the larger # will give you more play time.
