I am confused when it comes to lipo batteries. Whats the difference with the original NIMH/NICD batteries?? Please help. I want to buy a lipo judging by what i hear. I just want to know more about them before i go buy the wrong thing. Thanks!

Buy a Lipo and charger! You'll never look back

Lipo's are 3 times better than other batterys. As long as you balance charge them, check for swelling and take care of them, they last a long time. Yes the chargers are more expensive than the nicad/nimh chargers but its worth it!

If you want to get into the lipo game, and are looking at the prices of lipos and chargers, I highly reccommend www.hobbypartz.com

I've been running hobbypartz since i first got into the sport a little less than a year ago.

I havnt had any problems with their stuff, and just because its cheap, doesnt mean it isnt better. Gens Ace lipos are Grade A stuff.

Have Fun!!
