I would recommend 5000 mah. If your like me though, before my Main I go through everything and re-charge/check to be 100% ready for my race. Up to this point you have worked to hard all day and spent to much coin not to be 100% prepared. So whether it needs to or not, I top off all my batteries. Whats the old racing saying, "races are won in the shop".
So I guess 3000 or 4000 mah is not sufficient to last a whole day?
Where can I currently get the 12v deuce other than Amain?

No need to take two trailers. Flip a coin, the bear cave or heat mobile.

For anyone out there looking for a solution to the voltage, please try this... It's clean and works. I use mine with 4S2P 2300mah A123 cells (13.6v) but you can easily run a 6s lipo.
Purchase a Castle Creations BEC Pro:
http://www.castlecreations.com/products/ccbec.html#
Program to 12.0 volts (mine reads 12 volts exactly).
Un-solder the wires on the BEC and re-solder the competition electronics wiring harness inline. Make sure to note the output, input and polarity of everything... This will most likely void warranties, so do this at your own risk.
