Battery Packs, Charging, Care
This is a tutorial i wrote up to make a 9.6 volt battery pack with the standard AA battery holder. HOW TO MAKE 8 CELL AA BATTERY PACKS! I am in no way responsible for any damages or injuries to anyone who tries this guide. It is only a guide for people who may want to try it. This is an idea...
...This is about what KYOSHO didnt tell us :mad: ...We know KYOSHO is using a no-name 1100 cell for their 'HOT' packs...And its most likely, if you are like me, you believed that the stock electronics were designed to handle the 9.6 volts generated...this is in fact FALSE... ...KYOSHO has...
Much thanks to BitHed for the word on this forum. We gonna set this place on fire. Burn *(&^((& %$#^%$ Burn. Back to the subject at hand. I am trying to gauge if there is a desire for a product. I am not selling anything at this time. If it comes to that, this will shift from this forum to a...
...The halfEight runs on SIX alkalines stock...That is a whopping 9.6 volts...We know that KYOSHO will be releasing a hop-up battery pack, a rechargable 2/3A size 1100 mAh 8-cell pack which will be a VAST improvement...But will it REALLY have the balls we need? ...Team Helotes out of Texas has...
This is a silly question, but I am new to RC... (1) I have seen this Green/Yellow color GP batteries in electronic stores http://www.gpbatteries.com.hk/html/products/rechargeable_hydride.html (2) Are they the same ones as I see those Red color GP batteries in RC shops? (3) If not,...

I am racing the H8 tomorrow on an indoor carpet track with jumps. I have the bearings installed, the X motor and oil filled shocks. Team Helotes sent me the 8 cell GP1100 pack today but I won't get it in time for the race. What are the best batteries I can currently use? Should I just get some...
...At least we now know we can use a straight 6-pack in a pinch :p ...it works great but the car is prone to rolling...Gee I wonder why :D

How long does it take to "slow" charge 8 x Intellect 1200mah batt? It took me half an hour only for either slow or fast charge mode :confused: Using XSpeed motor and I can only fast running for 1 to 2 minutes and then slowly play for another 4 mintues or so before the car can no longer...
Hi you guys, Looking for some insight here. I am currently running the Half8 with a Mamba 6800 and an 8 cell Team Helotes GP1100 pack (a GREAT pack by the way!). I really want to run with LiPo's but I would be dropping from 9.6v to 7.4v. I will gain an increase in mah from 1100 to roughly 1600...
Do you think I could fit six of these babies in the half-eight? Or too big? (Regular AA is 1.95 x 0.56 x 0.56, these are 1.95 x 0.66 x 0.66 inch) 2500mAH CBP2500A CBP 2500 A NIMH 1.95 x 0.66 x 0.66 inch 1.35oz We have been looking for a cell like this for a while. This A sized cell...
Anybody got a pic they could post of an aftermarket battery pack for this little monster ?? I have a bunch of cells just beggin to be made into a pack for my Half 8 ..... :D Gregg
After try a six cell nimh AA and a two cell lipo, there is a conclusion: lipo sure. Well, now, where is the place to fit the lipo pack into the car?, not enought space in the original batt place. Second, the lipo weight much less than AA, so the load balance of the car is lost. What do you...
...i have a couple of different packs...I charge them ALL with a 12v car battery and a DC-only KYOSHO charger...sexy little system... ...The problem is nothing will charge...Is my car battery dead? I bought it fresh, albeit it was a cheapie...and i have charged LOTS...but now nothing...

I seek a store has hong kong which sells accumulators GP 2000. GP2000AFHR info CELL SPECIFICATIONS 4/5A Chemistry: NIMH Capacity: 2000mah
I really like my H8 so far, but with 8 GP1100 it is a heavy little thing. Thats why I'm thinking of switching to Lipo-Packs instead of good old NiMH. The only thing I'm worried about: the car allready seems to be more heavy in the front (lands on front wheels after almost every jump) - this will...
Got mine today and I thought I would share a few thoughts with you guys. Construction of the pack is top notch! Packs are covered with black shrinkwrap and look really good in the H8 chassis. Both packs are Apogee cells and I have been using them in the past (Mini T and M18) and they are...
