It'll be on it's way in a couple of hour's time

I think you'll be very happy with it, the feedback i get locally has been very positive.

The gold bar has minimal temp changes after charging or after running. The voltage seems to hold throughout a run, till the point I worry about my motor and esc, due to the run time I can get!! Scarry!!!

Cheers!!

Hi Ken,

Got the packs today. Great service!!!

Charged them up tonight, took around 3000mah to charge each of them up.

Taking them with me for some TCS practice for this weekend. I wonder what runtime I will get run a black can RS-540?

Cheers,

Tony

Hi Tony,

I must thank you for the opportunity of the sale, Let me know if i can help out in any way possible.

Just take note not to run it all the way down, that's the fastest way to kill any lipo. The moment you feel that the power is starting to drop, it's time to come in to top up the pack. Rather play it safe until you have a good estimate of runtime on your setup.

Default hhmm...

hiya Tony,

I think you're gonna be REALLY tired!

if you wanna have "gas car" type endurance, try a stock type brushless motor like LMT 3100 or similar. coupled with this pack and maybe a mechanically simple car like a tamiya f103, you'll be running for a long long time.

Have fun!

Well I used the TrakPower 4900 packs for practice on the weekend. It sure made life easy. On sunday I ran for about 15 minutes and noticed no drop off in power. Saved the race packs for the race...

The packs fit well into into a Tamiya TT01, Xray T1 FK05 (small mod to the battery holder blocks) and Losi XXX-T.

Balancer is available, however the adaptor to TrakPower is not released yet.
If you are interested, I am able to provide you with my own adaptor harness.

Ok - have you got some pictures of the balancer and adaptor harness?

How much will it cost?

-268g 40% less than most NiMH packs
-7.4V Nominal, 8.4V fully charged
-7V held under 100 Amp Load More Power
-10th-Scale Car Racing Fit
-Integral 4mm Gold-Plated connectors

The performance is nothing short of amazing! Imagine having your matched nimh packs power thru-out the entire race rather than only the first 2 mins!
More Power, Lighter weight, sturdier casing, lower price............

Please share comments and enquiries
How much and is it a 2s 2p pack?
