1s Lipo Battery Options??
With all of the talk about 1s Lipo batteries for WGT and some 13.5 oval classes...
Is THIS my only option?

SMC is the only company making 1s Lipos right now? I also checked Stormer and A-Main Hobbies and this battery was the only thing listed.
Secondly, do i need the voltage booster from Novak to run one of these batteries?

each "brick" in the saddle pack I have is 3.7V / 4200 mAh and they are wired in series to run as a 7.4v pack.
The dimensions are a bit different from the link above... not as long and just a bit taller...
68.5mm x 46.5mm x 23mm
(essentially the shape of 3 sub-c's)
Got mine for $70 or so which would give you two 1s packs to run...

Splitting a saddle pack sounds like it would work unless you race at a ROAR track and need to use ROAR legal packs. I'm thinking that using a legal pack in a configuration other than it was designed would make it illegal. I'm sure someone can confirm or refute that idea.
End of August will be a little late for the summer racing season. I'm sure the SMC packs are great but supplies might be short if this option really takes off. Tower is already on back order as of 6/4 when i searched it.

serial 4200mah + 3.7voltsx2 = 7.4volts
parallel 3.7volts + 4200x2 = 8400mah
so does anybody make a 7.4 saddle pack that only has 2500mah that looks like a 2cell nimh pack.
