opinions on starter box please

7.2 volt dual motor ?

12 volt single motor?

what do you'all use?

I use a 12V single motor ultimately it leads to a bigger and heavy starter box, but for now it's the best torque option.

i used the box that came with my hyper 7pbs all of last year, but decided to order a 12 volt unit so that i know i won't have any issues in the spring. it was a $95 inusrance policy

I've just started using a 12v after 2 years of ones powered by stick packs and wish I'd switched sooner its definately the best box I've had.

I've got the new power racing (dont laugh) 12v one.

First day using it , its stopped working. Its as good as the swift they make.

12v is the only way to go...POS plastic OFNA box let me down several times.
Pullstarts are for monster trucks

i got the mugen box w/ 2 motors and stick paks-its very light and nice
i also have the ofna crome top its a lug but will turn any motor over w/the 1-12v motor & gell cell

Ofna 12v here.

Ofna 12v #10250 here

This has been another one of the biggest misconceptions in RC. The dual 550 motors has the same torque as a single volt motor. The single volt just makes a little more RPM. You will need torque, and the 12v battery provides that with a big 7amps. Don't use the stick packs as they won't last that long. Just get yourself the gel cell, charger and enjoy yourself with many bumpstarts all day long. I use the Ofna 10th box to start my 10ths and 8th scales. It's very reliable if you use it properly.

i had the purple mugen box for road cars, and that thing blew up the third time i used it. one of the motors caught on fire
