RE: Whyy are some people still wasting their money on Nimh batteries?
from what iv seen, a high quality 6cell 4000mah nimh pack can cost $50, and a 2s 20c 4000mah pack can be $60. thats $10 more for a higher discharge, lighter weight, longer runitime pack. granted, you will need a lipo capable charger. but thats a one time cost. and my lipo capable chager was $95 with tax.
if you have rc's meant for nimh, than the cost can be high...lipo/charrger/cutoffs ect.
but if you have a brushless rtr vehicle, then a 2s lipo will cost only $10 more than a quality nimh. so, it just buying a lipo capable charger really.
