Not sure if its a misprint on not, but the numbers on the one Tom posted indicates its an A battery...(and a fat A at that).

td, I would think the ones you have would sell like hot cakes! 3v and 1600mah would have so many uses.

trust me i would love to sell more but the down side is i have to buy 300 sets first before it can be worth selling

More interested in these though. What's shipping to the US like? I have buddies south of the river in Windsor that could help me out perhaps.

Can you let me know when you have some, or do I need to keep checking your site or whatever? Thanks

US shipping is not bad and i have sold to the US many times

Longer than regular AAs?

Is It possible to put all 4 life cells in stock tray and run 2s2p to double capacity, or would it be better to charge four cells and place two unconnected spare in tray to swap out when first set are discharged ( I don't think I will like the weight of my controller without four cells in it?)

Thanks

right now im running them in 4 to double the capacity in my dx3r pro i did a power test onit and it ran for 5 days with the power on not shut off with the back light on

I have a futaba 3pk & I am going to build my own 3s2p pack

there is no point to run a life pack in your 3pk as you can just run a 3s lipo and it will be just fine




as for the life cell i really dont know if i want to get back in to selling them anymore its just a pain to get it all and then sell them and ship them and the way i sell them is

wall charger
2 life cell
2 jumper cell (this way no moding of the radio)

if i do it will not be till mid jan will i post up if im selling them again
