maxpro 2s lipo monitor. off the bay for aprox. 14.00 shipped to you. heli direct has them in their ebay store. Super nice quality. nice led's for visual and it beeps loud so you can hear it when going around the track. I have used these for a while and then gave them to friends when i went to newer speedos with cutoff built it. they are all happy with them. :nod:

the novak one is good too BUT it has too many wires for something that does the same job. I could not wait to rip that spaghetti mess of wires out of my car:mad: . the novak works by cutting motor power, the maxpro is a straight forward alarm with visual too :nod:
ps: the led is so bright on the maxpro that you can it through the body too:)

the maxpro plugs into the balance plug of your lipo. you can buy one and use it for every car you got:nod:

hey i have a quick ques for you.

Do you know what voltage this alerts at? Would your packs ever dump before it sounded?

Nice find!! I've been using smart stops and just adding a pr of deans mini-plugs so I can remove it and run it in other cars by just unplugging and plugging it in on another car. Effective, but requires the added soldering work and connectors.

This is a better solution - just plug into the balance tap! Cool, I'm ordering one myself. Plus there is no esc connection and it obviously doesn't cut or pulse power to the car which may be a prob (racing).

boomerrw - has various signals at diff voltage levels - flashing blue light for 6.8v to 7.4v, then a red light 6.6 to 6.8v, finally a beep and flashing red light below 6.6v.
