Wow, how is this thread dead? The batteries are great and you definitely get what you pay for. They don't have GensAce prices but the quality in the BatteryGiant packs compared to GensAce packs is insane. They run so much better and last much longer. I put them in my car and instantly went half a second faster, and since then they have only gotten faster. These batteries are top notch and I'm for sure going to keep them in all of the cars i run.

Guys comparing race packs to Gens Ace is . I have some Gens Ace for practice packs and they're fine for that. I certainly wouldn't race with them though unless I want guaranteed slower lap times.

Those smaller 70c packs look like my next shorty pack for sure! This packs looks awesome and the prices seem solid.

We are also out of Mini- cooper packs.

They will be back in stock in a couple weeks.

Thanks to all those who Ran them at the Scale Nats.

Default Results!

The Battery Giant Racing Packs have had some great results in the last few weeks.

First, Team Driver RJ Whiteside Wins Stock 17.5 at the Minnesota state Champs!

Congrats RJ.

At the ROAR Region 10 Race in Denver Team Driver Dustin Layne TQ and win in 13.5 and Second in 17.5 Stock.

Great Job Dustin!

Of course Battery Giant showed the way at the VTA Scale Nats At Harbor Hobby two weeks ago by drivers taking 1st, 3rd 5th and 9th.

Congrats to Natt Pheomthawee on the win!

Great lead into the summer Asphalt season and we look forward to great results at the Paved Nats In Joliet, Illinois.


Please let us know if you have some results to share!

Thanks,
Darrald

Hey Darrald,

Do you sell these packs through your store front also? Or just online and through LHS's (The Track)?

ESR measurements would be ideal. Along with some 35A discharge data.

Best thing of apples/apples.

The R/C consumer will soon get tired of sifting through inconsistent C ratings.

Good luck with the product line.

Im amazed at the negative post on here....Im really trying to understand why or how thats possible or needed...

I watched several guys run these at the Scale Nats and they all looked pleased...so price and performace must measure out...I hope this product does very well, and continue to win races...

maybe if I had a Giant in my car, I could have had more than TQ....good win Natt...

Default Next time!

Myron,
You may have been unstoppable!

Thanks for the good wishes.

Maybe we can help with that bridesmaid issue going forward.

Oh---- and all I saw of RJ last night was his rear bumper(again), so don't feel alone!

Thx,
Darrald

Default stock update

The website is updated and most all items back in stock.

Sale price on some packs through the end of the month (or stock runs out).
Will be adding a 4000Mah 40c pack to the line up at a great price.

Mini cooper packs also back in stock.

Also we have added 3s and 4s packs to the line up.Web site will be updated with those as shortly.

Thanks,
Darrald
