Best stampede battery

[yammaha]

I just got a stampede off craigslist and the battery is shot. What is the best battery to get other than a lipo?

these will work you will have to change the end though. or you could get a traxxas battery.

The best bang for the buck I've found so far is allbattery.com. 3800 Tenergys. Intellect are the best nimh cells I've used, but you'll pay a little more. If it's an xl5 Stampede, I'd go with at least a 7 cell. 8 cell if your charger can charge 8 cells.
