Local shops should have this style adapter. You can buy one of our Traxxas or Deans adapter and just use a Deans or Traxxas on your charger to charge the pack.

Danny,

Thanks for the awesome batteries. They are clearly better than what I was using before.

SMC has a very high quality product guys, and the pricing is terrific too.

Glad to hear you like our packs. My goal has always been to offer the best possible packs and now that we no longer sell SMC through distribution we can offer the best price to everyone.

My SMC packs were killer and I turned some heads once people found out I was running full size packs

Crash wasn't to bad. Could of been way worse.
I've still got some more throttle to go, right now I'm having a hard time with the insane speeds I'm achieving, it takes some getting used to. Also the car is brand new and I've hardley driven it. In time I'm sure I'll get more comfortable. I'm still searching for the perfect location to do this safely. If this car hits somebody at 100mph it could change a life lol.

Tire failure analyzed video. This caused the crash.

The 4S will only be in stock around the 8th of August. Last weeks shipment and a small shipment early next week is all used up with pre-orders. In fact we aren't getting enough packs to fill out all pre-orders. Doing all I can to get more of these to try and keep up.

Just added a Tips & Info section to our website. I think it helps give valuable info to customers.

In the the next few weeks I will work on graphs and charts to show data of the different models we offer.

I've bought a handful of batteries from you recently. Pretty happy so far.
