Tmaxx Batteries
 
What is the best battery and charger for the money. Iam looking to get one for the car and remote plus the charger. Any suggestions! However, I am not looking to spend alot.

for the t-maxx or the e-maxx?

the t-maxx doesnt need amazing batteries, i would say maybe 1700 mah or 1900 mah... they go for about 15 bucks, and as for charger? well maybe the towerhobbies fast charger... its 30 mins per charge... but dont charge the pack more than twice in the same day... its not good for it.. the best way to go would probably be a pull start though... its usually problem free, and as long as you have some nitro in your tank, you are good to go...

the e-maxx is a different story... you want the best money can buy... probably some 3300 mah's and a peak charger/discharger ... keeps your packs running at maximum efficiency, they give you more of a kick, and you get the most life out of your them... if its packs for the e-maxx, dont be too cheap to dish out the extra cash...

hope this helps...

Well I have a 6v 5 cell hump pack for my Tmaxx reciever. It's way better than alkalines, you get much more power to your servos.

Well thanks guys, and sorry for the late reply i have been busy this weekend. I will just have to look into the price ranges and then i will see what i can do. oh sorry i didnt mention what truck i have. Its a T maxx and iam going to put some high torque servos in and i heard the regular battery pack wont last very long using them.

What online store has the best prices for these hump packs. I noticed tower doesnt have 2000mah, unless i just didnt see it

you mentioned it was the t-maxx in the subject bar... i was just wondering why you would need batteries though... and about your batteries... umm... i think the hump packs are the best... just because they are compact and they are more powerful than using the rx... the 2000 mah are AA sized... they are used instead of alkalines... i would suggest a 5-cell hump pack thats 1200 mah....
