I have ran the lipo bat. with reg. for a couple of yrs now in bug and trug. and have spent a lot of moon dust on regs. that have failed. I have heard good things about the life bat. I would like to try them myself, but don't they take a specific charger. I haven't done my research yet. Currently I have 2 Ice chargers and read somewhere they won't work. Hate to spend another $100-200 on another charger.
