Default RE: Quality NiMH for VXL


ORIGINAL: genghis77us

Where can I get good NiMH battery packs for the VXL? Traxxas says an 8-cell 4000+ mah will give you 45 mph+, and it can handle up to 9 cells. I'd like to get a quality 7, 8, or 9-cell battery with 4000 mah or more.
IB4200's are the way to go! Buy two of these packs- http://www.boomboombatteries.com/Pro...Code=4200%5F4c
Then get a Deans parallel 2 to 1 adapter- http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXNKY8&P=M

8cells IB4200's will be crazy fast and not only will the batteries give you great preformance they last a long time to if cycled every so often.
