Default RE: I am thinking of crossing over to the dark side

I bought 3 Ryobi 18 volt drill batt packs. These are li-ion E Moli batts of 5S2P 1500MA batts. Just under 100.00 bucks a pack. I cut them up to make 2 6S2P packs and 2 3S2P packs. The two big packs are in a .46 size Pulse XT and a Twist 3D 46 size. These come with the hardware for glow and electric. The little batts are used in helis and 16 oz. planes. So $300.00 dollars worth of batts will get you 246 sixe packs and 2 smaller ones. They charge with a standard lipo charger and they don't puff and catch fire lihe lipos possibly can.
