2400 mah?
It could replace the typical 1800 nicd Sport Pack, and last much longer. It'd make a good spec class too. For a 5 minute race, i only use about 1800 mah with a 13.5, maybe a 2400 could be a more plactical battery. Lighter weight = Less wear/breakage.
I'm guessing it'll be less than $30, right? It sounds promising.

I bought one of them about two weeks ago. Wow is all I can honestly say, threw it in my T4 with a 10.5 novak and had a ball. A rough run time from what a friend and myself decided was about 30mins. Give or take 5 mins it was a guess we had.
I threw it in and started running around 6:15pm. Once the battery was almost dead I came right in and it was 7:00pm. I know for the first 15mins I was just messing around. After that I was giving it all the throttle I had. We were actually racing each other on an outdoor track.
I actually came in after he did and he was running a trackpower 4900. Honestly for the price it is a great battery. For play, spec, racing whatever I suggest it. I will need to do a better test to see what the exact run time is.

Hanzo yes it fits most if not all 1/10 touring cars, it is shaped like a stick pack to fit chassis which need that type of battery but it also has humps on the bottom which give it a side by side layout if you want to use it on a top end car.
