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...
Is there anywhere here in the states that sell the 14000 Intellect packs? Thanks

Hey! I`am new here on this forum, and this is my first post. :) I just wondered if there is possible to make my own battery-pack? I`ve thought about 8 to 10 cells, but will the stock-electronics handle this high voltage?? :confused: I have bought the x-speed upgrade motor. Thanks for tips!
Has anyone tried the 3300mah 1.2v nimh sub C cells? I just saw them on batteryspace. I wonder how long a 8 cell pack of these would last.
okay iam new to this do i need the regulator if i use 9.6 battery with stock esc/rec or will all my electronics be fine.i have not seen a straight answer yet?thanks for any input.also does anybody sell the regulator separatley.
hey guys im on a hunt for an 8 cell 9.6v charger... Just wondering what you guys think of the HOT BODIES ESCAPE DC CHARGER??? http://www.hotbodiesonline.net/escape.html I really would prefer one with ac mains connector but i may have to do with a 12 volt one... Any suggestions on good...
I already have a kyosho 9.6v pack Nimh, but i want something more (mostly running times), so i found lipos of 7.4v 1660 mah and Intelect Nimh 9.6v 1400 mha. I have an xspeed motor, so which one is best for longer running times AND which one is best for more speed? Does it matter that lipo is only...
Finally found a great place who will do 9.6v assembled packs. The place is DOUBLE L TRADING and are based in Melbourne. You can check out their eBay store. I bought a professionally assembled Intellect 1400mAh pack, shipped, for $42 AUS. They do ship to the USA and are very fast. Their...
Can you make them fit? GP2200 should be giving enough runtime. Anybody tried it?
Can you put Lipos (11.1v 1400maH) into the stock setup, or will it blow th espeed controller? Additiionally, doe anyone know how many mAh are ina standard 1.5v lkaline and why most nimh AA's are only 1.2v? Cheers! :eek: :)
I have a stock ESC, X speed motor and an 8-cell 9.6 volt 1200 mAh pack. Any one running about or the same and what sort of run time are you getting? I run on cut grass and only get about 8 minutes. Like I was saying in another post I am thinking about getting a 1/10 electric buggy but right now my...
How much of a differenece would 300 mah make in run times? I'm looking at the URC Xtreme 42s pack that uses GP1100s and the Race pack that has IB 1400s. Ive read that GPs are better so if the 300 mah difference wont be that great Ill go with the Xtreme Edit: also, a 9.6v NiMH pack will work fine...
Sorry for the delay....many of you have been very patient....and we appreciate that. So...without further delay, we are proud to release, or better yet, re-release the URC RACE Series! The RACE series is exclusively built with Intellect (IB) 1200mAh cells. One of the best 2/3a NiMH cells on...
Hi Guys Can anyone give me some advice on the best size (Mah) lipos for a half 8, and also a charger. I have been told that lipos take longer to charge than nimhs. is this correct. any help would be appreciated jason
I have an Intellert 1200 8-cell saddle pack. I am using 1.5 amps and peak 7 mV/C. Wondering if you all recommend going to 8 mV/C. I tried charging at 1.2 amps but my run time was not as long. I saw somewhere they are making higher mAh Intellert packs that I think are 1400. Is any one running the...
Hi, The original Kyosho 8 cells pack come with a regulator or something. Exactly what does that electronics do ? step down from 9.6 to 8.4 ? or ? I get a customed 8 cells pack which I don't use that. So, will it be okie ?
Hello, Can anyone give me tips on how to use lipos safely? Do I need to discharge and recharge after each run or do i just re-peak after each 5 min run?
Hi, Has anyone tried a 8 x AA battery configuration on Half8 ? any pic on that ?
Hi, Check it out. My custom made 8 cells pack of using 4/5AA. The size of 4 cell pack is same as a 3 cell AA. http://halfeight.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=741
