The 540 motor is like 400 watts, the 550 motor is 900 watts (or more).
The truck handles better with the 540, but most tracks have a big double or triple jump right out of a tight corner, and the extra rip makes getting over it a lot easier.

I run a RX8 with a Tekin Pro4 4600 and Savox servo. No puffing and long run times.
There is a guy I race with who killed a Gens Ace battery in his Durango. It was about six months old.
I, on the other hand, own one battery and charge at 20 amps. With a Thunder 1220 charger.
