Default truggy start box ?

I have the Ofna truggy starter box with two motors I have had a 12vlt battery for a while for it it just seems like it dies to quick.. and was wondering I Have one 3,600 battery if it would be worth it if I bought another one 3,600 would this give the box more power last longer ect.? or will it be less power?

Thanks

Pretty much what I have found on starter boxes is..The twin 550 motor boxes dont seem to hold up to the big blocks..motors seem to get hot to quick. I like the larger single 12 volt motors. They seem to hold up a lot better to the rigors of turning over big blocks. I have also found that I prefer LiPos 11.4 volts..around 5000ma or more, seem to hold up really well, plus if they drain I can recharge them quicker than a 12 volt sealed battery, only down side is the cost of the LiPos, but the size, weight wins for me.
