Ok, here is a quick question, one I have never quite understood....

My 3PJS would use 8 x Alkaline batteries which is 1.5 * 8 = 12 volts

Now a transmitter pack is typically 8 cells as well which is: 1.2 * 8 = 9.6 volts....

Shouldnt I use 10 cells to get to the correct voltage????

I get over 10.0V so who knows whats its about. Your right this had me concerned as well too.

But it seems it goes over 10.0V I think brand new they were doing 11v.

BTW mine were just $16 dollars for 8 = 2.00dollars. But the GP's I didnt know you could find them that cheap.

Ill have to test those out as a secondary set.

Post QUESTION...

How do you take regular AA batts and build a side by side pack like the ones that come with the 3PK? Has anyone done this? -JB

Im sure the exact same way you would with any other battery pack. Mine is a nimh , 2500mah battery. Which is made by energizer.

But as for regular alkalines, your not supposed to recharge those.

i've go some tamiya stuff you can have, call me, they are little thin strips about 1/4 by 5/8 you can trim them down, or go to the hobby store and buy it in strips already narrow enough,
