i was looking through my tower hobbies catalog and saw this-

would this work on my t maxx? if so, does it just plug into a open channel on the reciever box?

Yeah it would work but... Why would you buy something like that? You should time your pack and know how long you have till it needs a charge. I run a tank at the track, charge my pack. I know how long it will last/have a very close idea because I look at the MAH it took in the time I ran it - the total MAH of the pack. It's that simple.. Take that 10 bucks and buy yourself a new plug.

well i figured it would be cool just to have my 5 cell monitered. i dont really know how long it will last. i usually only run it between 20minutes to maybe a hour at the most. its a 1600mah pack.
